2.1 Exploring Patterns Flashcards
Ray
The ray AB consists of the initial point A and all the points on the line AB that lie on the same side of A and B lies
Line Segment
AB consists of the endpoints A and B and all the points on the line AB that lie between A and B
Opposite Rays
On the line AB if C is between A and B, then CA and BC are opposite rays
Collinear
Points, segments, or rays that lie on the same line are collinear
Angle
An angle consists of two different rays that have the same initial point. The rays are the sides of the angle and the initial point is the vertex of the angle
Acute Angle
An angle whose measure is greater than 0 and less than 90
Obtuse Angle
An angle whose measure is greater than 90 and less than 180
Right Angle
An angle whose measure is 90
Straight Angle
An angle with a measure of 180
Interior of an Angle
Every non-straight angle has an interior. A point D is in the interior of angle A If it is between points that lie on each side of the angle
Exterior of an Angle
Every non-straight angle has an exterior. A point D is in the exterior of angle A if it is NOT on the angle or in the interior of the angle
Adjacent Angles
Two angles are adjacent if they share a common vertex and side, but have no common interior points
