Properties and Theorems of Triangles

This video tutorial covers the angle bisector theorem converse, explaining that a point equidistant from the sides of an angle lies on the angle bisector. The video provides a visual representation and a detailed proof using congruence of right triangles. It concludes with a biconditional statement, emphasizing the relationship between a point on the angle bisector and its equidistance from the sides.

What does the angle bisector theorem converse state?

• A point on the angle bisector is equidistant from the sides of the angle.

• The angle bisector divides the angle into two equal parts.

• The angle bisector is perpendicular to the base of the triangle.

• A point equidistant from the sides of an angle lies on the angle bisector.
