Will a angle bisector determine a midpoint?
If you perform an angle bisector on an angle in a triangle, then it will go through the midpoint of the opposite side.
An altitude of a triangle is a line or segment through a vertex and to the line containing the opposite side?

What are secondary parts of a triangle in geometry?
A triangle is one of the basic shapes of geometry: a polygon with three corners or vertices and three sides or edges which are line segments. A triangle with vertices A, B, and C is denoted ABC.the secondary parts are at the bottom.the secondary parts of the trianglemedian - a segment whose endpoints are a vertex of the triangle and the midpoint of the opposite sideangle bisector - a segment which bisects an angle and whose endpoints are a vertex of the triangle and a point on the opposite sidealtitude - a segment from the vertex of the triangle perpendicular to the line containing the opposite sideperpendicular bisector - a line whose points are equidistant from the endpoints of the given side.incenter - the point of concurrency of the three angle bisectors of the trianglecentroid - the point of concurrency of the three medians of the triangleorthocenter - the point of concurrency of the three altitudes of the trianglecircumcenter - the point of concurrency of the three perpendicular bisectors of the sides of the triangle .by merivic lacaya and acefg123ZNNHS Student.

How do you draw a bisector of a triangle?
Find the midpoint of a side and join it to the vertex opposite. That is a median and it divides the mass of a triangle in two halves. Each triangle has three medians. However, there is no reason for a bisector to go through a vertex - it can be a straight line through any point in the triangle. In such a case drawing the bisector analytically is likely to be beyond the skills of most geometry students. There is, though, a very simple practical solution. Cut out a copy of the triangle on a uniform lamina. Suspend it vertically by a pin through the required point. Then the vertical line through that point (use a plumb line) is the bisector of the triangle through that point.
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
How are perpendicular bisectors and angle bisectors the same?
In general, they are not. In an isosceles triangle, the perpendicular bisector of the base is the same as the bisector of the angle opposite the base. But the other two perp bisectors are not the same as the angle bisectors. Only in an equilateral triangle is each perp bisector the same as the angle bisector of the angle opposite.
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.
Will a angle bisector determine a midpoint?
If you perform an angle bisector on an angle in a triangle, then it will go through the midpoint of the opposite side.
For what kinds of triangles can the perpendicular bisector of a side also be an angle bisector of the angle opposite the side?
Every isosceles or equilateral triangle.
What is the special name for the line that joins the vertex of a triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side?
bisector?
What is the opposite of international?
Outside or external are synonyms.
Which construction involves connecting two arcs on opposite sides of a segment?
Construction of a segment bisector a+
Is outer the opposite of internal?
No, external is the opposite if internal.
What is a line called when it is drawn from one vertex to an opposite side dividing into equal parts?
It is called a bisector.
Does the perpendiculare bisector of a cord pass through the center of the circle?
Yes. The perpendicular bisector of a chord forms a radius when extended to the centre of the circle and a diameter when extended beyond the centre to the opposite point on the circumference.
How do you find the length of a bisector in a square?
The simplest bisector is one going from the midpoint of one side of the square to the mid point of the opposite side. It is easy to show that it is the same length as the sides of the original square.
What is the length of rhombus?
The length of the rhombus is equal to the length of the diagonal formed by the bisector of the 2 opposite acute angles.
