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.
Endpoints: (2, 9) and (9, 2) Midpoint: (5.5, 5.5) Slope of line segment: -1 Perpendicular slope: 1 Perpendicular bisector equation: y-5.5 = 1(x-5.5) => y = x
Points: (-1, -6) and (5, -8) Midpoint: (2, -7) Perpendicular slope: 3 Perpendicular bisector equation: y = 3x -13
