5-1 Perpendicular and Angle Bisectors

What is the definition of a perpendicular bisector?

• A line that divides a line segment into three equal parts

• A line that runs parallel to another line segment

• A line or a line segment that intersects another line segment at a 90-degree angle and divides it into two equal parts.

• A line that intersects another line at a 45-degree angle

If a point lies on the perpendicular bisector of a line segment, what can you conclude about its distance from the endpoints of the segment?

• The distance from the point to the endpoints of the segment will be zero.

• The distance from the point to the endpoints of the segment will be different.

• The distance from the point to the endpoints of the segment will be negative.

• The distance from the point to the endpoints of the segment will be equal.

What is the definition of an angle bisector?

• A line that extends an angle into a larger angle

• A line that divides an angle into two different angles

• A line or ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles

• A line that creates a right angle within another angle

If a point lies on the angle bisector of an angle, what can you conclude about its distance from the sides of the angle?

• The point is equidistant from the sides of the angle.

• The point is at an equal distance from the vertex of the angle and one of its sides

• The point is closer to one side of the angle than the other

• The point is farther from one side of the angle than the other
