The included angle is defined as

The included angle is determined by how the two front steering axes are oriented relative to each other. Each steering axis is tilted in the front view (steering axis inclination) and each wheel may be cambered (tilt in the wheel plane). The angle between the two steering axes — the included angle — is therefore defined by the combination of steering axis inclination and camber. Toe and caster describe other alignment aspects and don’t define this angle.
