1: In aerodynamics, it is the angle between the chord line of the wing of a plane and the vector which helps to identify what direction an aircraft is flying in and the amount of lift the aircraft has. Generally, the higher the angle of attack, the more lift it will have
2: In sailing, it is the angle between the sail's chord line and the direction of the oncoming wind, which will determine what direction a sailboat will travel in
3: On the battlefield, it means the direction/s the opposing force/s are coming from
4: In debates and political settings, it refers to the approach used by a politician to make and support their arguments and counter their opponent’s arguments.

Definition 3 example: The enemy troops’ angle of attack is coming from two miles, northeast of our current position.
Definition 4 example: Delegate Faleomavaega’s angle of attack consists of making an argument based on their opinions and beliefs and supporting that argument by either appealing to the needs of the people or supporting it using some relevant facts that indicate their argument is correct. To counter their opponent’s arguments, they target their opponent’s credibility by pointing out contradictions in their argument and or pointing any business or personal relationships they may suggest that individual has a conflict of interest; or the delegate points out weaknesses or misinformation in their opponent’s argument.

Aeronautical term designing the angle formed by the nose of the plane and the relative wind (vector) of the plane.
Should no exceed 10° for most planes for safe flight, but can be way higher in certain maneuvers, such as the Cobra of the SU-27, where it can go up to 120°.

When you have intentions of penetrating a woman’s vagina, but accidentally push up instead of in resulting in a cut that goes upward through the body from the genital region with the precision of a scalpel which makes for a very painful torn clitoris and in some cases, a gutted girlfriend.
