What else can I help you with?
Why does a line segment have one midpoint and can have many bisectors?
A bisector is a line (or line segment) which passes through the midpoint. You can have multiple lines intersect at this one point, and all of them will bisect the original line segment, since they pass through its midpoint. A perpendicular bisector passes through the midpoint, and also is perpendicular to the original line segment, so there will be only one of those.
What is a segment that passes through of vertex and is perpendicular to the opposite side?
The segment that passes through a vertex and is perpendicular to the opposite side is called the altitude of the triangle.
What is the different between a perpendicular bisector and a midpoint?
A midpoint is a point. It's the point exactly halfway between the endsof a line segment.A perpendicular bisector is a line. It's the line that passes through themidpoint of the segment, and is perpendicular to the segment.
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and the side opposite that vertex?
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex. The median only bisects the vertex angle from which it is drawn when it is an isosceles triangle.
Which term describes the point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle intersect?
The point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle intersect is called the circumcenter. This point is equidistant from all three vertices of the triangle and serves as the center of the circumcircle, which is the circle that passes through all the vertices of the triangle.
What area of a triangle does a perpendicular bisector split?
a line that intersects an edge of a triangle that is perpendicular to it and passes through the midpoint
What are perpendicular bisectors?
A line that is perpendicular to the segment of a plane and passes through the midpoint.
What is a line segments or ray that passes through the midpoint of a side and is perpendicular to the side?
A perpendicular bisector.

and is perpendicular to the opposite side.

An altitude of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex of the triangle and is perpendicular to the line containing the opposite?
side
An altitude of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex of the triangle and is to the line containing the opposite side?
perpendicular
An of a triangle is a line segment that passes through the vertex of the triangle and is perpendicular to the lines containing the opposite side?
Altitude.
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and the side opposite that vertex?
A median of a triangle is a line or segment that passes through a vertex and the midpoint of the side opposite that vertex. The median only bisects the vertex angle from which it is drawn when it is an isosceles triangle.
An altitude drawn to a side of a triangle passes through the midpoint of that side?
Not necessarily. That only happens in isosceles and equilateral triangles.
