    Extending the results of \textit{G. Helzer} [Am. Math. Mon. 107, No. 3, 219--237 (2000; Zbl 1012.83002)], the author defines, in two-dimensional Minkowski space-time, Minkowskian angles and pseudo-angles between two null directions and between a null direction and any non-null direction, respectively, together with their hyperbolic trigonometric functions. Particular care is taken to define every notion, as well as to provide illustrations, by means of several handmade colored figures, of the facts described by the formulas, making this paper readable by undergraduates.
