bisect
It means to divide it into two congruent (equal measure) segments, or angles.
Angle and sides. Interior angles being equal means that exterior angles are equal.
Two angles that are equal are called "congruent angles." This means that they have the same measure in degrees or radians. In geometric terms, if angle A is equal to angle B, then we can say that angle A is congruent to angle B, often denoted as ∠A ≅ ∠B.
Assuming a 'straight angle' is 180 degrees and 'bisecting' means to divide it into 2 equal parts, then 180/2 equals 90 degrees = two right angles.
If 2 "corresponding" angles of two triangles and the side between the two angles are equal, then the two triangles are congruent. This means all their "corresponding" sides and angles are equal.
Bisected means that it cuts the angle into two equal parts. Therefore, if a 40degree angle is bisected, two 20degree angles will be formed.
ASA stands for "angle, side, angle" and means that we have two triangles where we know two angles and the included side are equal. If two angles and the included side of one triangle are equal to the corresponding angles and side of another triangle, the triangles are congruent.
Yes, bisecting means to cut something into two equal parts so bisecting an angle would leave you with two equal or congruent angles.
3. trisect means three
The base angles of an isosceles triangle are called the base angles. In an isosceles triangle, two sides are of equal length, and the angles opposite these sides are also equal. This means that the base angles are congruent. The third angle, which is the vertex angle, is located opposite the base.
A triangle where all three sides are equal is called an equilateral triangle. The sum of all three angles in any triangle is 180 degrees, and since equal sides means equal angles, three equal angles totaling 180 degrees; each angle must be 60 degrees.
Ah, what a delightful shape a rhombus is, with all its equal sides and angles! To find the measure of angle AEB, we simply divide the total of 360 degrees by the four equal angles of the rhombus. That means angle AEB in rhombus ABCD is 90 degrees, creating a perfect corner for our happy little shape.
