2line _____lines that meet to form right angles
3ray _____the numbers on a protractor used to measure angles
4line segment _____points not on the same line
5plane _____if three sides of one triangle are congruent to three sides of another triangle, then the two triangles are congruent
6postulates _____points on the same plane
7noncollinear points _____a line that intersects two or more other lines, each at a different point.
8coplanar points _____an angle that measures between 180 and 360 degrees
9theorems _____an angle that measures 360 degrees
10straight angle _____statements that can be proved
11acute angle _____in a right triangle, the sum of the squares of the lengths of the legs is equal to the square of the length of the hypotenuse
12obtuse angle _____angles that are interior angles on opposite sides of the transversal
13transversal _____statements accepted without proof
14perpendicular _____a triangle that has 3 sides all of different lengths
15parallel _____if point B is in the interior of angle AOC then the measure of angle AOB + the measure of angle BOC is equal to the measure of angle AOC
16alternate interior angles _____the two congruent sides of an isosceles triangle
17same side interior angles _____lines that are equal distance from each other and will never meet
18corresponding angles _____a tool used to measure angles
19supplementary angles _____if the square of the length of the longest side of a triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the two shorter sides, then the triangle is a right triangle
20complementary angles _____angles that are in the same position on the same side of a transversal. If you cut one out and layed it on top of the other they would match

32legs _____measures 180 degrees
33acute triangle _____a triangle with 3 acute angles
34obtuse triangle _____a triangle that has 3 angles all of which are the same measurement
35side-side-side postulate _____a triangle with one obtuse angle
36side-angle-side postulate _____if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to corresponding parts of another triangle, the triangles are congruent
37angle-side-angle postulate _____a flat surface that has no thickness or boundaries
38hypotenuse _____if two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to the corresponding parts of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent
39pythagorean theorem _____straight, but it has no thickness. It is an infinite set of points that extends in both directions.
40converse of the Pythagorean theorem _____2 angles whose measurements together add up to 90 degrees
