Angle Flashcards
Parallel
Lines that will never cross and are the
same distance apart and may go on forever
(will not cross if they go on & on.
Arc
Part of a circle that represents an angle between to intersecting lines.
Angles
When lines intersect they form angles and angles are the spaces or shapes that are formed between the intersecting lines. - They meet at a vertex name angles by names of points. < = angle symbol.
Perpendicular
Lines that form square corners when they intersect they form right angles.
Right Angles
Lines that form it are perpendicular and the angle measures 90.
Intersection
When lines cross they cross at a point called an intersection.
Acute Angles
Angles that are less than a right angle; less than 90o
Obtuse Angles
Angles greater than a right angle; greater than 90o.
Straight Angle
Straight line two lays pointing in opposite directions.
Complementary angles
Two angles that form right angles are called complementary angles (90o).
Supplementary angles
two angles combine to form a straight angle (180o).
Vertex
The point where two rays meets.
Congruent
having the same measures
Degrees
a measurement used to measure angles (small amount) symbol=o.
Protractor
Measures angles.
