The phase angle between voltage and current in a purely resistive circuit is zero. Voltage and current are in phase with each other.
The phase angle between voltage and current in a purely inductive circuit, under ideal circumstances where there is no resistance at all, is 90 degrees.
Power factor is the ratio of true power to apparent power -if you refer to the so-called 'power triangle', these correspond to the adjacent and hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle. The cosine of the angle between them is the ratio of hypotenuse (apparent power) to adjacent (true power). As the power triangle is derived from the voltage/current phasor diagram, this is exactly the same angle as that between load current and supply voltage.
Voltage and current will be in phase for a purely resistive load. As a load becomes more inductive or capacitive, the phase angle between voltage and current will increase.
Difference is in the work spot of voltage. Because of that, difference is in the graphics too. Also, angle(A)>180 , 90<angle(B)<180, angle(C)<90

It the angle between fault current and voltage at the point where the fault occurs.
Because there is an angle involved. If - for example - the resistance (the real part) is 10 ohms, and the reactance (the imaginary part) is also 10, then there is an angle of 45 degrees; which actually means that this will be the displacement angle between the voltage and the current.Impedance may just be specified with an angle; but it turns out that the calculations between voltage, current, and impedance correspond precisely to the calculations with complex numbers.Because there is an angle involved.

Power factor is the ratio of the angle between the voltage and current.In the power triangle cosine angle is the ratio between them...
First we need to know what is power factor ? it's cosine of angle between the current and voltage at that point where we wish to measure it. so power factor of "1" means the angle between the voltage and current is 0 degree. It means literally that the current and voltage is in the same phase.
in ac circuits power,P=VICOS@ @ is the angle between voltage and current. in dc P=VI V is the voltage I is the current. Power (in Watts) is current (A) x voltage (V)
Although we use the term 'Phase angle' it's also an angle referred to another phasor (voltage or current).For example,conventionally when expressing power factor, we use 'voltage' as the reference. So the 'phase angle' of a particular phasor is the phase difference between our reference (voltage) & the phasor.As the gist, both mean the same except that 'phase angle' is the direction of the phasor w.r.t. positive x direction (reference)..AnswerBy definition, phase angle is the angle by which a load current leads or lags a supply voltage.Phase difference is the angle between any two electical quantities -for example, the angle two phase voltages of a three-phase system.
90 DEGREE
The phase angle between voltage and current in a purely inductive circuit, under ideal circumstances where there is no resistance at all, is 90 degrees.
In a capacitor ckt, current will be lead ahead from voltage by an angle 90 degree. Because for a capacitor the relationship between voltage and current is given as v=(jx)i , where v= voltage i= current jx=capacitive reactance

It isn't as such, it is a consequence of generating electricity using a rotary method - the voltage generated is proportional to the sin of the angle between the magnetic field and the coil, and the angle changes due to rotation.
