      The author proves the following: Let \(\omega\) be a non-degenerate, skew symmetric, bilinear form on a four-dimensional vector space \(V\), \(J\) a complex structure compatible with \(\omega\), \(L\subset V\) a Langrangian subspace and \(g\) the Euclidean inner product \(g(X,Y)=\omega(X,J\,Y)\). Then, the angle \(\theta\) for the plane \(L\) is well defined by the following condition: If \(y\in L\) is an arbitrary vector, then \(\theta\) is the angle formed by \(J\,y\) and \(\pi(J\,y)\), where \(\pi\) is the orthogonal projection with respect to \(g\). The main statement is, that this quantity does only depend on \(L\), not on \(y\). It is a special case of the notion of Kähler angle considered in Kähler manifolds.
