Angular is a complete framework for building webapps, whereas Polymer is a library for creating Web Components. Those components, however, can then be used to build a webapp.

Can Angular and Polymer be used together?
Yes! You can use Polymer custom elements inside of an Angular app. Web components are just regular DOM elements, so they have attributes, emit events, and can contain child elements.
What about the future of both projects?
Angular and Polymer will remain separate projects with their own goals. That said, Angular has announced they’ll eventually move to use the Web Components APIs in their underlying architecture.
For Angular 2.0, Web Components will work seamlessly within Angular apps and directives, and components written in Angular will export to Web Components to be used by Polymer or other libraries.
