  1. 5.2 Perpendiculars and Bisectors Geometry

  2. Objectives: • Objectives • Use properties of perpendicular bisectors • Use properties of angle bisectors to identify equal distances such as the lengths of beams in a room truss. • DFA • P.296 #6 • HW • HW – pp.296-299 (2-28 even,29-31 all)

  3. In lesson 1.5, you learned that a segment bisector intersects a segment at its midpoint. A segment, ray, line, or plane that is perpendicular to a segment at its midpoint is called a perpendicular bisector. Use Properties of perpendicular bisectors CP is a  bisector of AB

  4. Equidistant • A point is equidistant from two points if its distance from each point is the same. • Equal distance

  5. If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment. If CP is the perpendicular bisector of AB, then CA = CB. Theorem 5.1 Perpendicular Bisector Theorem

  6. If a point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment, then it is on the perpendicular bisector of the segment. If DA = DB, then D lies on the perpendicular bisector of AB. Theorem 5.2: Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem

  7. Refer to the diagram for Theorem 5.1. Suppose that you are given that CP is the perpendicular bisector of AB. Show that right triangles ∆ABC and ∆BPC are congruent using the SAS Congruence Postulate. Then show that CA ≅ CB. Plan for Proof of Theorem 5.1

  8. Statements: CP is perpendicular bisector of AB. CP  AB AP ≅ BP CP ≅ CP CPB ≅ CPA ∆APC ≅ ∆BPC CA ≅ CB Reasons: Given Definition of Perpendicular bisector Given Reflexive Prop. Congruence. Definition right angle SAS Congruence CPCTC Given: CP is perpendicular to AB. Prove: CA≅CB

  9. In the diagram MN is the perpendicular bisector of ST. What segment lengths in the diagram are equal? Explain why Q is on MN. Ex. 1 Using Perpendicular Bisectors

  10. What segment lengths in the diagram are equal? Solution: MN bisects ST, so NS = NT. Because M is on the perpendicular bisector of ST, MS = MT. (By Theorem 5.1). The diagram shows that QS = QT = 12. Ex. 1 Using Perpendicular Bisectors

  11. Explain why Q is on MN. Solution: QS = QT, so Q is equidistant from S and T. By Theorem 5.2, Q is on the perpendicular bisector of ST, which is MN. Ex. 1 Using Perpendicular Bisectors

  12. The distance from a point to a line is defined as the length of the perpendicular segment from the point to the line. For instance, in the diagram shown, the distance between the point Q and the line m is QP. Using Properties of Angle Bisectors

  13. When a point is the same distance from one line as it is from another line, then the point is equidistant from the two lines (or rays or segments). The theorems in the next few slides show that a point in the interior of an angle is equidistant from the sides of the angle if and only if the point is on the bisector of an angle. Using Properties of Angle Bisectors

  14. If a point is on the bisector of an angle, then it is equidistant from the two sides of the angle. If mBAD = mCAD, then DB = DC Theorem 5.3 Angle Bisector Theorem

  15. If 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 DB = DC, then mBAD = mCAD. Theorem 5.3 Angle Bisector Theorem

  16. Given: D is on the bisector of BAC. DB AB, DC  AC. Prove: DB = DC Plan for Proof: Prove that ∆ADB ≅ ∆ADC. Then conclude that DB ≅DC, so DB = DC. Ex. 2: Proof of Theorem 4.3

  17. By definition of an angle bisector, BAD ≅ CAD. Because ABD and ACD are right angles, ABD ≅ ACD. By the Reflexive Property of Congruence, AD ≅ AD. Then ∆ADB ≅ ∆ADC by the AAS Congruence Theorem. By CPCTC, DB ≅ DC. By the definition of congruent segments DB = DC. Paragraph Proof

  18. Roof Trusses: Some roofs are built with wooden trusses that are assembled in a factory and shipped to the building site. In the diagram of the roof trusses shown, you are given that AB bisects CAD and that ACB and ADB are right angles. What can you say about BC and BD? Ex. 3: Using Angle Bisectors

  19. Because BC and BD meet AC and AD at right angles, they are perpendicular segments to the sides of CAD. This implies that their lengths represent distances from the point B to AC and AD. Because point B is on the bisector of CAD, it is equidistant from the sides of the angle. So, BC = BD, and you can conclude that BC ≅ BD. SOLUTION:

  20. Statements: D is in the interior of ABC. D is EQUIDISTANT from BA and BC. DA = DC DA  _BA_, __DC_  BC DAB and DCB are rt. s DAB = 90°DCB = 90° BD ≅ BD ∆ABD ≅ ∆CBD ABD ≅ CBD BD bisects ABC and point D is on the bisector of ABC Given: D is in the interior of ABC and is equidistant from BA and BC. Prove: D lies on the angle bisector of ABC. Problem 32 on p.270 Reasons: • Given • Given • Def. Equidistant • Def. Distance from point to line. • If 2 lines are , then they form 4 rt. s. • Def. of a Right Angle • Reflexive Property of Cong. • HL Congruence Thm. • CPCTC • Angle Bisector Thm.
