Study Notes

### Complementary Angles

  • Complementary angles add up to 90 degrees.

### Adjacent Angles

  • Adjacent angles share a common vertex and side, but have no interior points in common.

### Angle Bisectors

  • An angle bisector cuts an angle into two congruent angles.

### Segment Bisectors

  • A segment bisector cuts a segment into two congruent segments.

### Vertical Angles

  • Vertical angles are always congruent.

### Perpendicular Bisectors

  • A perpendicular bisector is perpendicular to a segment and intersects it at its midpoint.

### Distance

  • The distance between two points is the length of the segment connecting them.

### Complementary and Supplementary Angles

  • The complement of an angle is the acute angle that makes 90 degrees with the given angle.
  • The supplement of an angle is the angle that makes 180 degrees with the given angle.

### Right Angles

  • A right angle has a measure of 90 degrees.
  • Perpendicular lines intersect to form four right angles.
