How many bisectors are in a segment?
Infinitely many. Each line segment contains one point which bisects it. Any one of the infinite lines through that point, apart from the original line, is a bisector.
Is it possible to construct a perpendicular line that bisects a line segment?
yes
A perpendicular line or segment that bisects one side of a triangle is called the?
Perpendicular bisector.
The shortest segment from a point to a line?
. . . is the segment perpendicular to the line.
How do the Triangle-Angle Bisector Theorem and the Angle Bisector Theorem differ?
They are the same concept, one for the angle and 1 for triangle.Definition of a triangle angle bisector is a line segment that bisects one of the vertex angles of a triangle.Definition of an angle bisector is a ray or line segment that bisects the angle, creating two congruent angles.
What is it called in geometry when a point bisects a segment?
a line
A line that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
A line that intersects a segment at its midpoint bisects the segment.
A point that bisects a segment?
Midpoint
What must be true about a perpendicular bisector and the segment it bisects?
It bisects the line segment at midpoint at 90 degrees and its slope is the reciprocal of the line segment's slope plus or minus.
How many bisectors are in a segment?
Infinitely many. Each line segment contains one point which bisects it. Any one of the infinite lines through that point, apart from the original line, is a bisector.
Is it possible to construct a perpendicular line that bisects a line segment?
yes
What is an Auxiliary line segment?
an Auxiliary line segment is also referred to as a angle bisector, it bisects an angle.
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and bisects the side the vertex?
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and bisects the side of the triangle opposite the vertex.
What is the point that divides or bisects a segment into congruent segments called?
Midpoint
Mid point of a segment and angle bisector?
Definition of angle bisector:An angle is formed by two rays with a common endpoint. The angle bisector is a ray or line segment that bisects the angle, creating two congruent angles. To construct an angle bisector you need a compass and straightedge.Definition of midpoint:Midpoint of a line segment is the point that is halfway between the endpoints of the line segment. A line segment has only one midpoint. If AB is a line segment and P is the midpoint, then AP = BP =
To bisect is to cut?
To bisect anything is to cut it in half. So if one line segment bisects another line segment, then the second segment is divided into two equal lengths.
What is the bi sector of a segment?
The bisector of a segment is a line that cuts the segment into exact half. For example, if the vertical line bisects the horizontal line in " T ", the vertical line cuts touches the horizontal line at the midpoint of the horizontal line
