But you can create it in AutoCAD using dimangular by selecting line’s vertex.
From your AutoCAD ribbon (or toolbar) activate the tool. OR type DIMANGULAR then [enter], you will see on the command line these options:
Select arc, circle, line, or <specify vertex>:
Press [enter] to specify vertex. Now, select the vertexes.

You need to use some option, but yes, you can do it!
