Question

question 6 of 10
which statement best defines an angle?

a. two lines that intersect at a point called the vertex
b. two line segments that intersect at a point called the vertex
c. two rays that share a common endpoint called the vertex
d. two lines that share a common line segment called the vertex

Explanation:

An angle is formed by two rays (not lines or line segments) that start from the same endpoint, which is defined as the vertex. Options A and B use lines/line segments incorrectly, and D has an incorrect definition of the vertex.

Answer:

C. two rays that share a common endpoint called the vertex
