What divides a segment or angle into 2 equal parts?
A segment bisector or angle bisector. A bisector can be a line, line segment, or ray.
If a point is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment then it is?
on the perpendicular bisector of the segment.
Can a segment have more then one bisector?
No, the definition of a bisector is the point at which a segment is divided into two equal halves. Of course, a segment may be divided further. However, there can be only one bisector of any one segment.
What is the perpendicular bisector theorem?
If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant, or the same distance, from the endpoints of the segment.
what is true about the creased bisector and the line segment that is bisected?
The bisector and the line segment are perpendicular to each other.
State the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem and its converse as a biconditional?
Biconditional Statement for: Perpendicular Bisector Theorem: A point is equidistant if and only if the point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment. Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem: A point is on the perpendicular bisector of the segment if and only if the point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment.
What is a segment bisector?
I line that intersects a segment at its midpoint.
A segment line or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
A Segment Bisector
What is the difference between a perpendicular bisector and a angle bisector?
A perpendicular bisector is a line that divides a given line segment into halves, and is perpendicular to the line segment. An angle bisector is a line that bisects a given angle.
Can a segment bisector create two congruent segments?
By definition, a segment bisector always created two congruent segments.
What theorem is used to prove a segment is a bisector?
A segment need not be a bisector. No theorem can be used to prove something that may not be true!
Can a segment bisector split a segment into two equal parts?
The term bisector means that bi is the two of something (a cycle with two wheels is a bicycle, for instance). Therefore a bisector will split a segment, area, angle, into two equal parts.
