complementary angles

Two angles whose sum is 90 degrees

same side exterior angles

exterior angles that lie on the same side of the transversal. Are SUPPLEMENTARY (add up to 180 degrees)

adjacent angles

side by side angles that share a common vertex and a ray

supplementary angles

Angles that add to 180 degrees (can be adjacent or non-adjacent)

congruent angles
