AB
Acute angleAn angle with a measure less than 90 degrees.
Adjacent anglesAngles in the same plane that have a commom vertex, and a common side, but no interior points in common.
Amount of turnA unit of angle measure used when an angle is viewed as the figure formed by turning a ray about its endpoint.
Bisector of an angleGiven an angle, this is the ray that has the same endpoint as the sides of the angle, that passes through the interior of the angle, so that the two angles formed are congruent.
Center of a circleThe point in the interior of a circle that all the points of the circle are the same distance from. A circle is named by this point.
ChordAny line segment whose endpoints are on the circle.
CircleAll points in the same plane that are the same distance from a point.
Complement of an angleAn angle that has a measure equal to 90 degrees - the measure of the given angle.
Complementary anglesTwo angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees.
Congruent AnglesTwo or more angles that have the same measure.
DegreeA unit of angle measure equal to 1/360 turn.
Diameter of a CircleA segment the contains the center of a circle and has its endpoints on the circle.
EquidistantThe same distance
Measure of an AngleA number in degrees or amount of turn associated with an angle. It is denoted, m/
Obtuse AngleAn angle with a measure more than 90 degrees.
ProtractorAn instrument used to measure angles.
Radius of a CircleA segment joining the center of a circle to any point on the circle.
Right AngleAn angle with a measure of 90 degrees.
Straight AngleAn angle with a measure of 180 degrees.
Supplement of an AngleAn angle that has a measure equal to 180 degrees - the measure of the given angle.
Suppplementary AnglesTwo angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees.
Vertical AnglesTwo angles whose sides form two pair of opposite rays.
