5-4 Triangle Perpindicular Bisectors, Medians, and Altitudes

Question 1

Perpendicular Bisector

Answer 1

a line that intersects a segment at its midpoint and is perpendicular to the segment. A triangle contains exactly 3 perpendicular bisectors

Question 2

concurrency of perpendicular bisectors theorem

Answer 2

the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle are congruent at a point equidistant to the vertices of the triangle

Question 3

Congruent

Answer 3

When three or more lines intersect at one point

Question 4

Angle bisector

Answer 4

a ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles. A triangle contains exactly 3 angle bisectors

Question 5

concurrency of angle bisector theorem

Answer 5

the bisectors of the angles of a triangle are congruent at a point equidistant from the sides of a triangles

Question 6

median of a triangle

Answer 6

a segment whose endpoints are a vertex and a midpoint opposite side of a triangle

Question 7

concurrency of medians theorem

Answer 7

the medians of a triangle are concurrent at one point that is two thirds the distance from each vertex

Question 8
