Vertical angles are opposite angles formed by two intersecting lines. The cross found in St. John's church in Severna Park is an example of vertical angles. For vertical angles to occur you must have two lines that intersect but they can't be on the same line. the two angles that are across from one another are vertical angles. The cross has a long line going slightly down to the right and is being intersected by a smaller line pointing diagonally up to the right. From the diagram angle 1 and angle 4 are vertical angles and angle 2 and 3 are vertical angles. The vertical angles are also congruent to one another. The cross is found in Christian churches and is used to worship and remember the suffering Jesus went through when he was crucified. Christians and others use crosses in worship. Masons and steel workers create crosses for cemeteries and churches.
