1 a restraining, arresting, or checking of the action of an organ or cell. 2  the reduction of a reflex or other activity as the result of an antagonistic stimulation.  a state created at synapses making them less excitable by other sources of stimulation.
Angles 2 and 7, as well as angles 3 and 6 are examples of alternate interior angles. Similarly, we also have alternate exterior angles that are located outside of the two intersected lines and on opposite sides of the transversal. An example of this relationship would be angles 1 and 8, as well as angles 4 and 5. The last angle relationship is consecutive interior angles. These angles are located on the same side of the transversal and inside of the two lines.
An acute angle is an angle with a measure between 0 and 90 degrees. An obtuse angle is an angle with a measure between 90 and 180 degrees. Two angles are complementary if the sum of their measures is equal to 90 degrees. Example: angles a and b with measures a = 19 and b = 71 are complementary since a + b = 90.
