I think according two common usage of the terms they refer to different emotions.
Anger is a state of energy. Frustration is a rather passive state.
Anger doesn't get triggered for every unfulfilled expectation. It get's triggered if things aren't as they "should" be. If you think you don't deserve what you are expecting you get frustrated upon not getting it but not angry.
And since the concept of "should" evolved as a primarily social mechanism, it makes sense that anger would be triggered by (perceived) social affronts.
