Geometry vocab
Across
- 2. angles The angles which occupy the same relative position at each intersection where a straight line crosses two others. If the two lines are parallel, the corresponding angles are equal.
- 6. angle An angle whose measure is more than 90 and less than 180.
- 10. polygon A polygon in which all sides are the same length and all angles have the same measure
- 11. lines Two lines that intersect at right angles; the symbol ⟂ means “is perpendicular to”
- 12. triangle A triangle with no sides and angles equal in length.
- 14. Consists of two lines that have a common endpoint called the vertex of the angle.
- 15. triangle A triangle with all three sides equal in length, each angle of an equilateral triangle measures 60°
Down
- 1. triangle A triangle with two sides equal in length and two base angles equal.
- 3. lines Two lines in the same plane that do not intersect ( distance between the two lines is the same at any point).
- 4. angles Two angles are supplementary if the sum of their measures is 180.
- 5. angles Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is 90.
- 7. sides Two sides that share a common vertex.
- 8. A 2-dimensional figure formed by three or more line segments (sides) that meet only at their endpoints (vertices) to make a closed path; sides may not cross one another.
- 9. The point at which the rays of an angle or the sides of a polygon meet; the plural form of the word is “vertexes” or “vertices”
- 13. angle An angle whose measure is less than 90 but greater than zero.
- 16. of symmetry The axis or imaginary line that passes through the center of the shape or object and divides it into identical halves.
