A perpendicular bisector is a line segment that is perpendicular to another line segment and passes through its midpoint. In geometry, it is often used to construct angles, triangles, and circles.

The perpendicular bisector is a line that is perpendicular to a segment and divides it into two congruent segments. Understand that by similarity, side ratios in right triangles are properties of the ...

Now use the information you already have about finding the equation of a line and apply it to the dashed lines shown in these triangles. Remember, to find the equation of a line you need a point ...

The six intersection points of a triangle’s non-parallel altitudes and perpendicular bisectors are the vertices of two congruent minor periambic triangles which are inversely similar to the original.

This method involves drawing two chords (straight lines connecting any two points on the circumference) within the circle that do not intersect each other. Next, draw a perpendicular bisector for each ...

To construct a 60° angle, we first draw a line of any length. Then using a compass, we use this as a base to construct an equilateral triangle. To construct the equilateral triangle, we: open the ...
