If you extend a ray that bisects an angle of a triangle so that it passes through the opposite side will it bisect the opposite side?

Only in an equilateral triangle will bisectors of the three angles bisect the opposite sides. In an isosceles triangle, only the bisector of the one different angle will bisect the opposite side (between the identical angles).

Do the medians of a triangle bisect the internal angles?
Not always. 1. The median to the base of an isosceles triangle bisects the vertex angle. 2. When the triangle is an equilateral triangle, then the medians bisect the interior angles of the triangle.
Is median is a angle bisector?
A median is a line drawn from the centre of a side of a triangle to the opposite vertex. Only in two cases does it also bisect the angle :- 1) All three medians of an equilateral triangle bisect the angle of the opposite vertex. 2) One median (from the unequal side to the enclosed angle of the two equal sides) bisects the angle of the opposite vertex.
Do the rectangles diagonals bisects at 90 degrees?
Bisect: Yes At 90 degrees: No
Do the diagonals of a rectangle bisect vertex angles?
No, but the diagonals of a square does bisects its interior angles.
Does a rectangles diagonals bisect opposite angles?
No, a rectangle's diagonals do not bisect opposite angles.
Is median of a triangle bisect it's angle?
The median of a triangle bisects its side

Does altitude of a triangle always bisect the opposite side?
No.
What is the name of the diagonal that bisects opposite angles?
A diagonal joining opposite angles is the principal diagonal. It may or may not bisect the angles, and that does not affect its name.
Does the angle bisector in a triangle bisect the opposite side?
Not necessarily. The only time that the angle bisector would bisect the opposite side is if you were bisecting the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle.
Does diagonals of a rhombus bisect?
yes it bisects.
Does a parallelogram have adjacent sides equal?
A parallelogram has adjacent equal sides. Diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other,Opposite sides of a parallelogram are parallel and will never intersect. The area of a parallelogram is twice the area of a triangle created by one of its diagonals. Any line through the midpoint of a parallelogram bisects the area.
What bisects a pair of what in a rhombus?
The diagonals bisect one another in a rhombus.
What are the angle bisectiors of a triangle?
They are lines, through the vertices of a triangle, that bisect (divide into two halves) the angles of the triangle.
Do the rectangles diagonals bisects at 90 degrees?
Bisect: Yes At 90 degrees: No
Does one diagonal bisect the other of a kite?
Yes, in the figure of a kite one diagonal bisects the other. They do not bisect each other.
