In the picture, line AB and line CD are parallel to each other and line EF intersects
in the other lines. The measurement of the angle 2 and angle 6 are equal.
Therefore, the angles are congruent.
Postulate #16
- Corresponding Angles Converse: corresponding
angles that are congruent the lines are parallel
- If two lines are cut by a transversal and their
corresponding angles are congruent, then the lines are
parallel
The lines in the picture have the same slope, making the lines
vertical to each other.
If two sides of a triangle are congruent , then the angles
opposite to these sides are congruent.
Statement Reason
1. Angle BAE - Given
2. Let C be a part of ray such that AB = AC - Point Plotting Theorem
3. Let D be the midpoint of segment BC - Every Segment has exactly one midpoint
4. BD = CD - Definition of Midpoint
5. AD = AD - Reflection Property of Equality
6. Triangle ABD is congruent to Triangle ACD - SSS Postulate
7. Angle BAD is congruent to Angle CAD - CPCTC
8. Ray AD bisects Angle BAC - Definition of Angle Bisector
Part 2 (Angle BAE has only one bisector)
A median of a triangle is a segment whose end points are a vertex of the triangle and
the midpoint of the opposite side.
In triangle ABC, if segment BD is a median to segment AC, then AD = DC
Reason: Definition of Median
An altitude of a triangle is a perpendicular segment from a vertex of the
triangle to the line containing the opposite side.
In triangle ABC, if segment BD is an altitude of a triangle to
segment AC, segment BD is perpendicular to segment AC, making Angle
BDA and Angle BDC right
Reason: Definition of Altitude of a Triangle
Leonard Euler proved in 1765 that for any triangle, three of the four points of
concurrency are collinear. The line that contains these three points is known as
Euler’s Line. The incenter is excluded.
Perpendicular Bisector- Hi! I am a line that cuts a segment of the
triangle into two. The two cut segments are also the same
measure. For example: Cutting a bamboo exactly into two with the
same measures.
