Compass - an instrument for determining directions, as by means of a freely rotating magnetized needle that indicates magnetic north.
Midpoint- a point at or near the middle of, or equidistant from, both ends, as of a line: the midpoint of a boundary.
Parallel- (of straight lines) lying in the same plane but never meeting no matter how far extended. (of planes) having common perpendiculars.
Right Angle- the angle formed by two radii of a circle that are drawn to the extremities of an arc equal to one quarter of the circle; the angle formed by two perpendicular lines that intersect; an angle of 90°.
Pythagorean Theorem - the theorem that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
Congruent - that two or more things are the exact same size and shape.
Skew- Neither parallel nor intersecting. Used of straight lines in space.
Distance Formula - The distance d between the points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)
Obtuse Angle - an angle greater than 90° but less than 180°.
Protractor - an instrument having a graduated arc for plotting or measuring angles.
Endpoint - the point on each side of an interval marking its extremity on that side.
Ray - one of a system of straight lines emanating from a point.
Angle - the space within two lines or three or more planes diverging from a common point, or within two planes diverging from a common line.
Length of a segment - A straight line which links two points without extending beyond them.
