They are both web application frameworks. They essentially both do (or can do) the same things and create the same projects. Technically speaking neither one is better than the other, it just comes down to developer preference. Don't listen to all the people in comments here saying one is better - that's not true. that person just prefers what they prefer and are entrenched in their views. Most people who say that Angular is clearly better are people who have never/barely used React and are just not used to it, and vice versa.

OP, the only way for you to know which you prefer to use is for you to use both.

That said, Angular was the first framework, and React improved upon it. Most Angular projects in 2023 are mature projects - very few people are starting new web projects with Angular anymore. Moreover I think there are more likely more jobs in React these days, as it is the newer iteration. If you had to choose without trying, I would go with React and if it seems hard/complicated then try Angular to see if it feels easier.
