Angles Vocabulary
Angle is a measure of the amount of rotation between two lines or planes.
- Vertex: The point where two lines or rays of an angle meet.
- Ray: One of the two lines or segments that form an angle.
- Acute angle: An angle that measures less than 90 degrees.
- Right angle: An angle that measures exactly 90 degrees.
- Obtuse angle: An angle that measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.
- Straight angle: An angle that measures exactly 180 degrees.
- Reflex angle: An angle that measures more than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees.
- Complementary angles: Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.
- Supplementary angles: Two angles whose sum is 180 degrees.
- Adjacent angles: Two angles that share a common vertex and a common side but do not overlap.
- Linear pair: A pair of adjacent angles whose non-common sides are opposite rays.
- Conjugate angles: Two angles that share the same initial and terminal sides but face in opposite directions.
- Central angle: An angle that has its vertex at the center of a circle.
- Inscribed angle: An angle formed by two chords of a circle that share an endpoint on the circle.
- Interior angle: An angle that is inside a shape or figure.
- Exterior angle: An angle that is outside a shape or figure.
- Transversal: A line that intersects two or more lines at different points.
- Alternate interior angles: Two angles formed by a transversal and two intersecting lines that are on the opposite side of the transversal.
- Alternate exterior angles: Two angles formed by a transversal and two intersecting lines that are on the same side of the transversal.
- Corresponding angles: Two angles formed by a transversal and two intersecting lines that are in corresponding positions.
- Vertical angles: Two angles formed by two intersecting lines that are opposite each other and are always congruent.
Line Vocabulary
A line is a geometric object that extends infinitely in both directions.
- Ray: A line that has one endpoint and extends infinitely in one direction.
- Line segment: A line that has two endpoints and is of finite length.
- Intersecting lines: Two or more lines that cross each other at a single point.
- Parallel lines: Two or more lines that never intersect and are always the same distance apart.
- Perpendicular lines: Two lines that intersect at a right angle.
- Transversal: A line that intersects two or more lines at different points.
- Angle: The measure of the amount of rotation between two lines or planes.
- Point: A location in space that has no size or dimension.
- Slope: The rate at which a line rises or falls.
- Y-intercept: The point at which a line crosses the y-axis.
- X-intercept: The point at which a line crosses the x-axis.
- Linear equation: An equation in which the highest power of the variable is 1.
- Linear function: A function that can be represented by a linear equation.
- Distance: The length of the shortest path between two points.
- Midpoint: The point that is halfway between two given points.
- Endpoint: The point at which a line segment or ray begins or ends.
- Collinear points: Three or more points that lie on the same line.
- Congruent lines: Two or more lines that have the same length.
- Bisector: A line, plane or point that cuts another line segment into two congruent segments.
- Line of symmetry: A line that divides a shape into two congruent parts, or mirror images of each other.
