Topic III: Lines, Angles and Triangles

Lines, Angles and Triangles Special Segments in Triangles Objectives: Identify and use perpendicular bisectors, angle bisectors, medians and altitudes in triangles. Essential Question: How can you use the points of concurrency in triangles?

Lines, Angles and Triangles Special Segments in Triangles Perpendicular Bisectors and Angle Bisectors Vocabulary Perpendicular bisector: Is a segment that passes by the midpoint of a side and is perpendicular to that side. They are concurrent. Circumcenter: Is the point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle. It is equidistant from the vertices of the triangle.

Lines, Angles and Triangles Special Segments in Triangles Vocabulary Angle bisector: Is a bisector to any of the angles of the triangle. Any point on the angle bisector is equidistant from the sides of the angle. They are concurrent. Incenter: Is the point of concurrency of the angle bisectors. It is equidistant from the sides of the triangle.

Lines, Angles and Triangles Special Segments in Triangles Vocabulary Median: Is a segment whose endpoints are a vertex of a triangle and the midpoint of the side opposite the vertex. They are concurrent. Centroid: Is the point of concurrency of the medians of a triangle. It is the point of balance of any triangle.

Lines, Angles and Triangles Special Segments in Triangles Vocabulary Altitude: Is a segment that joins a vertex of a triangle with the opposite side and is perpendicular to that side. Orthocenter: Is the point of concurrency of the altitudes of a triangle. Midsegment: Is a segment that joins the midpoints of two sides of the triangle. Every triangle has three midsegments, which form the midsegment triangle.
