|---|---|
| side | line segment that make up a polygon |
| angle | two rays or lines that share a common point or vertex |
| congruent | equal in size or length |
| parallel lines | two lines that would never intersect when headed in both directions forever |
| perpendicular | two lines that intersect at a 90 degree angle |
| straight angle | a 180 degree angle |
| right angle | a 90 degree angle |
| obtuse angle | an angle greater than 90 degrees |
| acute angle | an angle less than 90 degrees |
| vertical angles | the congruent opposite angles that are formed when two lines intersect |
| adjacent angles | two angles that share a common side, line, or ray |
