You're talking about relationship calculators. Google it and you'll get loads back. Here's an example of one:
http://www.genproxy.co.uk/relationships_progenitor_cousin.ht...
Basically
First cousins are persons who share a set of grandparents (but aren't siblings).
Second cousins share a set of great-grandparents (but aren't first cousins or siblings).
Third cousins share great-great-grandparents, etc, etc.
Removed is used when two persons share a set of ancestors but are not the same number of generations in descent from those ancestors
