Ms. Fort -
I recall you said we did not have to do the phrases we did not go over in class,  but I cannot remember if you meant both or not.
The two were skew lines and non-congruent alternate interior angles. I think you meant both so I did neither of those.

Adjacent Non-Supplementary Angles

Picture from here
These barn doors represent the adjacent non-supplementary angles well. It is only by 90 degrees and not a flat 180 degrees, which means it is complementary and not supplementary. The two angles that are next to each other classify them as adjacent. Barn doors are usually on barns, where horses or other livestock/work animals are kept. It would be easier to find a barn in a more rural area.

Three or more Coplanar Parallel Lines

This is a picture of the nutrition facts of a pouch of apple sauce. There are more than three parallel lines and I believe it is coplanar. The nutrition facts on food is very important. It helps us moderate our intake, shop for better food, and try to eat healthier. Nutrition labels are on almost every single food.

Congruent Acute Angles

Photo By Em Outland
This is a photo of two boxes of loose leaf tea. The marked angles are both congruent and acute because both of the angles are under 90 degrees, and measure the same. This item is used as a drink/food after being steeped in hot water, and can be found in grocery stores. Usually people use this as a substitute for morning coffee. People who like to drink tea will often have tea bags in their house.

Angle Bisector

Original photo from here


When an angle is bisected, it creates two angles with the same measure, as shown in this picture of a pizza. By cutting the slice in half, there are now two more slice of even size. Pizza is a common food throughout the world, and can be found in most eateries.Unless a person dislikes it, pizza is eaten practically every week or so.

Supplementary Angles that are not a Linear Pair

This is a multi-colored eye shadow palette. The two angles highlighted in blue would add up to 180 degrees, which makes these two angles supplementary. It is also fairly obvious to see the two highlighted angles are not on the same line, which makes them coplanar and not collinear. Eye shadow is used as makeup to enhance the appearance  generally by girls. Eye shadow can also be found in drugstores.

Segment Bisectors

(Photo Taken by Em Outland)
These are marble tiles. This can represent a segment bisector because the grout in between the tiles is a straight line (180 degrees)then when bisected, the segments would be congruent, which is shown in this photo. Tiles similar to these can be found in most houses, either in bathrooms, hallways, or kitchens, and are used as a floor cover to walk on or for decorating a room.
