5.1 Parts of a Triangle Flashcards
Perpendicular Bisector Theorem
If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment
Perpendicular Bisector of a Segement
A line that is perpendicular to a segment at its midpoint
Perpendicular Bisector Converse Theorem
If a point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment, then it lies on the perpendicular bisector of the segment
Angle Bisector Theorem
If a point is on the bisector of an angle, then it is equidistant from the 2 sides of the angle
Angle Bisector Converse Theorem
If a point is in the interior of an angle and it is equidistant from the 2 sides of the angle, then the point is on the angle
Distance between a point and line
The length of the perpendicular segment that connects the point and line
