---
#### 1. A part of a line or a ray that extends from one endpoint to another
- Definition: This describes a segment of a line with two endpoints.
- Answer: F. line segment
---
#### 2. An exact location that is usually represented by a dot and a capital letter
- Definition: This refers to a specific point in space, often labeled with a capital letter.
- Answer: Q. point
---
#### 3. A part of a line that has one endpoint and extends without end in one direction
- Definition: This describes a ray, which starts at one point (endpoint) and continues indefinitely in one direction.
- Answer: A. ray
---
#### 4. A perfectly flat surface that extends infinitely in all directions. Made up of at least 3 points.
- Definition: This describes a plane, which is a two-dimensional surface extending infinitely in all directions.
- Answer: C. plane
---
#### 5. A straight path that extends without end in opposite directions
- Definition: This describes a line, which extends infinitely in both directions.
- Answer: N. line
---
#### 6. Formed by two rays with a common endpoint
- Definition: This describes an angle, which is formed when two rays share a common endpoint.
- Answer: K. angle
---
#### 7. Common endpoint for an angle
- Definition: The common endpoint of the two rays forming an angle is called the vertex.
- Answer: P. vertex
---
#### 8. An angle that measures exactly 180 degrees
- Definition: An angle measuring exactly 180 degrees is called a straight angle.
- Answer: L. straight angle
---
#### 9. Angle that measures exactly 90 degrees
- Definition: An angle measuring exactly 90 degrees is called a right angle.
- Answer: D. right angle
---
#### 10. An angle that measures more than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees
- Definition: An angle greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees is called an obtuse angle.
- Answer: M. obtuse angle
---
#### 11. An angle that measures less than 90 degrees
- Definition: An angle less than 90 degrees is called an acute angle.
- Answer: O. acute angle
---
#### 12. Having the same length or size
- Definition: This describes congruent figures or angles, which have the same size and shape.
- Answer: E. congruent
---
#### 13. The sum of two angles is 90 degrees
- Definition: Two angles whose measures add up to 90 degrees are called complementary angles.
- Answer: B. complementary angles
---
#### 14. The sum of the measures of two angles is 180 degrees
- Definition: Two angles whose measures add up to 180 degrees are called supplementary angles.
- Answer: G. supplementary angles
---
#### 15. Have a common vertex and a common side but no common interior points. These angles when formed by two intersecting lines are supplementary.
- Definition: These are adjacent angles, which share a common vertex and a common side but do not overlap.
- Answer: H. adjacent angles
---
#### 16. Opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines
- Definition: When two lines intersect, the angles opposite each other are called vertical angles.
- Answer: I. vertical angles
---
#### 17. A line that intersects two or more lines
- Definition: A line that crosses two or more lines is called a transversal.
- Answer: J. transversal
---
