A point that bisects a segment?
Midpoint
What is converse of mid point theorem?
If a segment bisects one side of a triangle and is parallel to another side, it bisects the third side as well.
What is a segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle called?
I think it's called a vertice, and there are 3 vertices in a triangle. -- WRONGCORRECTION- it is NOT called a vertice. A vertice is each angle point, there ARE three vertices in a triangle but they the point of each angle.Now, a segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle is called a mid-segment. There are three mid-segments in a triangle.Go here for more info* http://regentsprep.org/Regents/math/geometry/GP10/MidLineL.htm *
In geometry what is a point?
A point in geometry shows you where the line segment ends/startsEx) A._____.B Or ._____>BA point is where two lines cross. More than two can cross but that is of no consequence. The two lines might be the coordinate lines on a graph which define the point.A point is a vertex
What is the difference between midpoint and the midpoint theorem?
mdpt: point line or plane that bisects a line so that AB=BC. mdpt theorem: point or plane that bisects a line so that AB is congruent to BC.
What is the point that divides or bisects a segment into congruent segments called?
Midpoint
A point that bisects a segment?
Midpoint
What is converse of mid point theorem?
If a segment bisects one side of a triangle and is parallel to another side, it bisects the third side as well.
Are point segment and plane undefined terms in geometry?
yes
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.
What does mid point mean in geometry?
It is the mid-point of a line segment that has end points
What is one difference between an altitude and a median of a triangle?
An altitude is a perpendicular drawn from a point to the opposite segment while a median is a segment drawn from a point to the opposite side such that it bisects the side.Altitudes and their concurrenceMedians and their concurrence
What an chord in math?
In geometry, the line segment that goes from one point to the other point where a line intersects a circle.
What is a line that starts at a point and goes off in one direction indefinately?
In the context of basic geometry, a line that starts at a specific point and goes off indefinitely is called a "ray" (as opposed to a line or a line segment).
What point line ray or segment that intersects a segment at its midpoint called?
It is called a bisector.
Explain why a line segment is considered a defined term in geometry?
A point is an undefined term. But given two points, they can be joined using a line segment.
What is a segment connecting the midpoints of two sides of a triangle called?
