A midsegment of a triangle is a segment that connects the midpoints of
two sides of
a triangle.

Midsegment TheoremThe segment connecting the
midpoints of 2 sides of a triangle is parallel to
the 3rd side
and is ½ as
long.

Perpendicular Bisector Theorem If a point is on the perpendicular
bisector of a segment,

then it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment.

Point that is equidistant from two lines…
When a point is the same distance from one line as it is from another line, the point is equidistant from the two lines(or rays or segments).
![Page 15: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Angle Bisector TheoremIf a point is on the bisector of an angle,
then it is equidistant from the 2 sides of the angle.
If angle ABD = angle CBD,
then DC = AD.
![Page 16: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Converse of the Angle Bisector TheoremIf a point is in the interior of an
angle and is equidistant from the sides of the angle, then it lies on the bisector of the angle.
If DC = AD, then angle ABD = angle CBD.

Bisectors of a Triangle…
![Page 18: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
A perpendicular bisector of a triangle is a line (or ray or segment) that is perpendicular to a side of the triangle at the
midpoint of the
side.
![Page 19: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

When three or more lines (or rays or segments) intersect in the same point, they are called concurrent lines (or rays or segments). The point of
intersection of the
lines is called the
point of
concurrency.
![Page 21: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The three perpendicular bisectors of a triangle are concurrent. The point of concurrency can be inside the triangle, on the triangle, or outside the triangle.
![Page 22: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors
of a triangle is
called the
circumcenter
of the triangle.
![Page 23: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Concurrency of Perpendicular Bisectors of a Triangle
The perpendicular bisectors of a triangle intersect at a point
that is equidistant
from the vertices
of the triangle.
OA1 = OA2 = OA3
![Page 24: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
An angle bisector of a triangle is a bisector of an angle of the triangle. The three angle bisectors are concurrent. The point of concurrency of the angle bisectors is called the
incenter of the triangle and is always inside the triangle.

Concurrency of Angle Bisectors of a TriangleThe angle bisectors of a triangle intersect at a point that is equidistant from the sides of the triangle. LMC = LMA = LMB

Medians and Altitudes of a
Triangle
![Page 28: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Medians and Altitudes
![Page 29: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
A median of a triangle is a segment whose endpoints are a vertex of the
triangle and the
midpoint of the
opposite side.
![Page 30: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The three medians of a triangle are concurrent. The point of concurrency is called the centroid of the triangle. The centroid is always inside the triangle.
![Page 31: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Concurrency of Medians of a Triangle
The medians of a triangle intersect at a point that is two thirds of the distance from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side.
![Page 32: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
An altitude of a triangle is the perpendicular segment from a vertex to the opposite side or to the line that contains the opposite side. An altitude can lie inside, on or outside the triangle.
![Page 33: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
If AR, CT, and BU are altitudes of triangle ABC, then AR, CT,
and BU intersect at some point P.
![Page 34: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)

TheoremIf one side of a triangle is longer
than another side, then the angle opposite the longer side is larger than the angle
opposite the
shorter side.
![Page 38: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
TheoremIf one angle of a triangle is larger than
another angle, then the side opposite the larger angle is longer than the side opposite the smaller
side.
![Page 39: Chapter 5](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062409/5681479d550346895db4d35e/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Triangle InequalityThe sum of the lengths of any two
sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side.
Would sides of length 4, 5 and 6 form a triangle....?
How about sides of length 4, 11, and 7 ?
