LT has that function.

On the dimension toolbar there is the "angular" dimension icon. Check to see
if you have the dimension tool bar turned on. If not go to the Dimension tab
and scroll down to angular. The other way is to click on the line then hit
the List icon. That will give you the properties of the line including
length and angle. If you don't have the list icon turned on go to the modify
tab, then scull down to properties.

This is the way it is in 2002LT and 2004LT

I've used LT from release 2000 until release 2005 and used full version
since. I still don't know half of what the program does.
