<p class="note">Note: Defining the path with <<angle>>, the element can be positioned in the polar coordinate system. In polar coordinates, a pole is the reference point and points are described as been a certain distance from it, as also a certain angle from the polar axis. In mathematical theory, the polar axis is commonly defined as the positive direction of the x-axis, but we consider the polar axis as the positive direction of the y-axis position as other CSS specifications usually do. Therefore, when the <<angle>> value of 'offset-path' is 0, the element is positioned on the y-axis. If the <<angle>> value increases in the positive direction from 0, the element moves clockwise. The method to determine a direction using the <<angle>> value for 'offset-path' works the same way in [[!CSS3VAL]], <<angle>> value.</p>
