Angle Geometric shape formed by two rays (initial and ending sides of the angle) that share a common

endpoint called the vertex. You may name an angle using the vertex, or a point in each ray and the vertex label in the center. Acute angle An angle that is between 0 and 90 degrees. Adjacent angles If two angles have a common side, a common vertex and no common interior points then they are adjacent. Collinear In the same line. Coplanar Within the same plane. Line An infinite set of points that extends forever in two directions. 2 points on the line allows to uniquely define it. Non-Collinear Not in the same line. Obtuse angle An angle whose measure is greater than 90 but less than 180 degrees. Plane A two-dimensional group of points that goes on infinitely in all directions; made up of infinite lines Point Indicates a location in space and has no size. It is represented by a dot and usually labeled with uppercase letters. It is uniquely identified by a set of coordinates (x,y) in the plane, and (x,y,z) in the space. Ray The section of a line that has one endpoint in one side and it never ends at the other side. (flash light beam pointing to the space) Segment A section of a line, defined by two end points and all the points between them. Relevant Theorems The Pythagorean Theorem states that the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares of the two legs in a right triangle. As you change the dimensions of the triangle, by dragging any of the vertices; One important postulate about planes states that two planes have as intersection a line. To name a plane you need to use three non-collinear points. Should you use collinear points to name a plane, you wouldn't be able to avoid ambiguity; since you may have infinite number of planes intersecting in the line.
