angle side
|
One of the rays of an angle.
|
|
ray
|
A line segment that has one endpoint.
|
|
line
|
Extends into space from a single endpoint.
|
|
line segment
|
A piece of a line that has an endpoint on each end.
|
|
right angle
|
An angle that measures 90°; a square corner.
|
|
supplementary
|
Two angles whose sum is 180°.
|
|
complementary
|
Two angles whose sum is 90°.
|
|
congruent
|
Two figures that are the same shape and size.
|
|
acute
|
An angle whose measure is between 0 and 90°.
|
|
obtuse
|
An angles whose measure is between 90° and 180°.
|
|
degree
|
How we measure angles. There are 360° (pie slices) in a circle.
|
|
vertical angles
|
When two lines cross, the vertical angles share a vertex but not a side.
|
|
parallel
|
Two lines in a plane that never intersect.
|
|
transversal
|
A line that intersects with two other lines in a plane.
|
|
interior angles
|
In parallel lines crossed by a transversal, these are the angles in between the parallel lines.
|
|
exterior angles
|
In parallel lines crossed by a transversal, these are the angles outside of the parallel lines.
|
|
corresponding angles
|
In parallel lines crossed by a transversal, these are the pairs of angles that are on the same side of the transversal, and one each on the same side of the parallel lines.
|
|
perpendicular
|
When two lines or line segments intersect to form a right angle.
|
|
alternate interior angles
|
In parallel lines crossed by a transversal, these are the pairs of interior angles that are on opposite sides of the transversal, and one on each of the parallel lines.
|
|
same-side interior angles
|
In parallel lines crossed by a transversal, these are the pairs of interior angles that are on the same side of the transversal.
|
|
protractor
|
A tool used to measure angles.
|
|
polygon
|
Poly = many; gon = sides
|
|
triangle
|
A polygon with three sides.
|
|
parallelogram
|
A quadrilateral which has both pairs of opposite sides equal.
|
|
quadrilateral
|
A polygon with four sides.
|
|
trapezoid
|
A quadrilateral that has exactly (only) one pair of parallel sides.
|
|
rectangle
|
A quadrilateral with all angles equal.
|
|
square
|
A rectangle with equal sides.
|
|
rhombus
|
A parallelogram with all sides equal.

|
|
hexagon
|
A polygon with six sides.
