acute angleis less than 90 degrees
right angleequals 90 degrees
obtuse angleis over 90 degrees
straight angleequals 180 degrees
bisectsdivides an angle into two equal parts
complementary anglestwo angles that add up to 90 degrees
supplementary anglesangles that add up to 180 degrees
adjacent anglestwo angles that are side-by-side - have a common vertex and side
vertexpoint where two rays meet
vertical anglesopposite angles in intersecting lines - will be equal
will equal 180 degreesadjacent angles
congruent anglesangles that have the same measure
intersecting linescross at some point
parallel lineslines that never intersect or cross
skewdo not intersect but are not parallel
perpendicular lineslines intersect to form right angles
