straight angle
an angle whose measure is 180 degrees
trapezoid
A quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides
acute angle
an angle that measures less than 90 degrees
intersecting lines
lines that cross each other at exactly one point

an angle that measures greater than 90
parallel lines
lines in the same plane that never intersect and are always the same distance apart
