| corresponding angle | lie on the same side of the transversal and in coresponding positions, angles that have the same position on to different parallel lines cut by the transversal |
| alternate interior angle | angles forms when a transversal cuts a set of parallel lines they are on opposite sides of the transversal and are congruent |
| acute | having or experiencing a rapid onset and short but severe course, less than 90 |
| sss congruence | If three sides of one triangle are congruent to 3 sides of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent. |
| sas congruence | If two sides and the included angle of one triangle are congruent to two sides and the included angle of a second triangle, then the two triangles are congruent |
