Geometry - Transversal Vocabulary - (copy)

AB
acute anglean angle that measures less than 90 degrees.
alternate exterior anglesequivalent angles found on the outside of two parallel lines on opposite sides of a transversal
alternate interior anglesequivalent angles found on the inside of two parallel lines on opposite sides of a transversal
complementary anglesa pair of angles that share one leg. The sum of these two angles measures 90 degrees.
obtuse anglean angle that measures more than 90 degrees.
parallel linestwo lines that lie in the same plane that will never cross when extended
perpendicular lineslines in the same plane that intersect at 90 degrees
right anglea 90 degree angle
supplementary anglesa pair of angles that share one leg. The sum of these two angles measures 180 degrees.
transversala line that cuts across two parallel lines
vertical angleEquivalent opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines (e.g., the top and bottom angles of an “X.” Vertical angles share a common vertex.
