Perpendicular Bisector Theorem
|
If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment.
|
|
Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem
|
If a point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment, then it is 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 two sides of a triangle.
|
|
Converse of the Angle Bisector Theorem
|
If a point is in the interior of an angle and is equidistant form the sides of the angle, then it lies on the bisector of the angle.
|
|

|
when 3+ lines intersect in the same point
|
|
point of concurrency
|
where 3+ concurrent lines intersect
|
|
circumcenter
|
the point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle
|
|
The circumcenter is _________ inside the triangle.
|
Sometimes.
|
|
Concurrency of Perpendicular Bisectors of a Triangle

|
Concurrency of Angle Bisectors of a Triangle
|
The angle bisectors The angle bisectors of a triangle intersect at a point that is equidistant from the sides of the triangle.
|
|
median
|
a segment whose endpoints are a vertex of the triangle and the midpoint of the opposite side
|
|
centroid
|
point of concurrency of the medians
|
|
Concurrency of Medians of a Triangle
|
The medians of a triangle intersect at a point that is 2/3 of the distance from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.
|
|
altitude of a triangle
|
the perpendicular segment from a vertex to the opposite side or line that contains the opposite side
|
|
An altitude is ______________ inside the triangle.
|
Sometimes.
|
|

|
point of concurrency of the altitudes
|
|
Concurrency of Altitudes of a Triangle
|
The lines containing the altitudes of a triangle are concurrent
|
|
midsegment
|
segment that connects the midpoints of two sides of a triangle
|
|
Midsegment Theorem
|
The segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side and half as long.
|
|
Theorem 5.10
|
If 1 side of a triangle is longer than another side, then the angle opposite the longer side is larger than the angle opposite the shorter side.
|
|
Theorem 5.11
|
If 1 angle of a triangle is larger than another, then the side opposite the larger angle is longer than the side opposite the smaller angle.
|
|
Extertior Angle Inequality Theorem
|
The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle is greater than the measure of erither of the two nonadjacent sides.
|
|
Triangle Inequality Theorem
|
The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.
