...is called the angle DBG, or CBD. I When a straight line standing on another straight line, makes the adjacent angles equal to one another, each of these angles is called a right angle ; and the straight line which stands on the other is called a perpendicular to it. XL An obtuse angle is that... | |

...letter only is often used, as A. When one straight line standing on another straight line makes the adjacent angles equal to one another, each of these angles is called a right angle; and the straight line which stands on the other is said to be perpendicular to it. We acquire a clear idea... | |

...another straight line so that the adjacent angles (or those on each side of it) are equal to each other, each of these angles is called a right angle ; and the first line is said to be PERPENDICULAR to the second : as HK and ' • L M. When an angle is greater than a right angle it is said to be obtuse,... | |

...LINES. 8. Definition. When one straight line meets another, so as to make two adjacent angles equal, each of these angles is called a right angle ; and the first line is said to be perpendicular to the second. Thus, if A OC and BOC are equal angles, c each is a right angle, and the line CO is perpendicular... | |

...to form two angles, these angles are said to be adjacent. If the adjacent angles are equal, each A is called a right angle, and the first line is said to be perpendicular to the second. Thus, if DOA and DOP are equal, each is a right angle, and OD is perpendicular to PA, at... | |
