| right angle | An angle that measures 90 degrees. |
| straight angle | An angle that measures 180 degress. |
| supplementary angles | Two angles that have a sum of 180 degress. |
| complementary | Two angles that have a sum of 90 degrees. |
| linear pair | Two angles that are adjacent and supplementary. |
| adjacent angles | Angles that share a side and share a vertex. |
| vertical angles | Opposite (non-adjacent) angles formed when two lines cross. |
| perpendicular | Intersecting lines (segments or rays) forming right angles. |
| midpoint | The point that divides a segment into two equal parts |
| bisect | To cut into two equal parts |
| perpendicular bisector | A line (segment or ray) that divides a segment into two equal parts and forms right angles with the segment. |
| line | One of the three undefined terms.. |
| angle bisector | A ray (or line segment) that divides angle into two equal parts. |

| compass | A tool used in constructions |
| coplanar | In the same plane. |
| collinear | On the same line. |
| vertex | The point that two rays intersect to form an angle. |
| angle | Formed by two rays that share a common endpoint. |
| Point | One of the three undefined terms. Represents a location in space. |
| Line Segment | Part of a line between two specific points called endpoints. It is measurable. |
| Ray | Part of a line from one point (endpoint) that includes all the points on the same side as that endpoint. |
| Degrees | The unit of measure for angles. |
