I have a sphere (taken from http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/, credits to Bartman):

A graphical representation of a steradian.
It is the solid angle subtended at the center
of a unit sphere by a unit area on its surface. (Wikipedia)

I want to add an angle alpha like this:

How can I do this?

First, you have to name the coordinate for the edges of the angle. Here I use (x) and (y).

 path [name path = horizontal] (-rx,z-ry*ry/z)
 -- (rx,z-ry*ry/z);
 path [name intersections = of = ellipse and horizontal];
 endscope
 draw (O) circle [radius=2cm];
 filldraw (O) circle (1pt) node[below] $O$;
 draw[densely dashed] (O) to [edge label = $1$] (-1.33,1.33) coordinate (x);
 draw[densely dashed] (O) -- (1.33,1.33) coordinate (y);
 draw[red, densely dashed] (-1.36,1.46) arc [start angle = 170, end angle = 10,
 x radius = 13.8mm, y radius = 3.6mm];
 draw[red] (-1.29,1.52) arc [start angle=-200, end angle = 20,
 x radius = 13.75mm, y radius = 3.15mm];
 draw (-1.2,2.2) -- (-0.23,1.1) node at (-1.37,2.37) $B$;

 % Command for the angle

This is just a small addendum to Joule V's nice answer, which solved the main problem. By now there are IMHO much better tools available to draw such graphs.

1. 
   tikz-3dplot allows you to install orthographic projections, i.e. dial the view angles.


2. The 3d library allows you to switch to a plane to e.g. draw a latitude circle. So you no longer need to guess ellipses.


3. The angle of visibility, i.e. the angle at which the dashed lines turn in solid ones and vice versa has been compute e.g. here, so you do not need to guess this either.

The following animation shows that you can dial view and latitude as you wish.
