1. Line Segment – a measurable part of a line that consits of two endpoints and all the points between
them
2. Ray – it is a subset of a line that has one endpoint and one wrrowhead that goes in one direction

Angle Addition Postulate
Angle Pairs
Complementary Angles
-if you add two angles the sum is a right angle or 90 degrees
Math
Supplementary angles
-if the sum of two angles is 180 degrees they are called supplementary angles
Adjacent Angles
-two angles that have a common vertex and a common ray are called adjacent angles
Linear pair
-two adjacent supplementary angles are called linear pair
Supplementaey angles
-if two angles form a linear pair, then they are supplementary\
Math
Vertical Angles
-Vertical angles are two angles whose side form two opposite rays
