Angle pairs

Cards (11)

  • Vertex:
    The vertex is where the sides meet
  • Adjacent angles:
    Angles that share the same side
  • Linear pair:
    adjacent angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees
  • Supplementary angles:
    two angles that add up to 180 degrees
  • Complementary angles:
    two angles that add up to 90 degrees
  • Vertical angles:
    two angles formed by intersecting lines
  • parallel:
    When two lines don't intersect, then they're parallel
  • Transversal:
    When a third line intersects parallel lines and 8 angles are formed
  • Alternate interior angles:
    in between the parallel line but on opposite sides of the transversal line
  • Same side interior angles:
    in between the parallel lines and on the same side of the transversal line
  • Corresponding angles:
    are either both above or below a parallel line and are on the same side of the transversal line
