Use the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem EXAMPLE 1 Use the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem ALGEBRA BD is the perpendicular bisector of AC . Find AD. AD = CD Perpendicular Bisector Theorem 3x + 14 5x = Substitute. 7 x = Solve for x. AD = 5x = 5(7) = 35.

EXAMPLE 2 Use perpendicular bisectors In the diagram, WX is the perpendicular bisector of YZ . a. What segment lengths in the diagram are equal? b. Is V on WX ? SOLUTION a. WX bisects YZ , so XY = XZ. Because W is on the perpendicular bisector of YZ, WY = WZ by Theorem 5.2. The diagram shows that VY = VZ = 25. b. Because VY = VZ, V is equidistant from Y and Z. So, by the Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem, V is on the perpendicular bisector of YZ , which is WX .

GUIDED PRACTICE for Examples 1 and 2 In the diagram, JK is the perpendicular bisector of NL . 1. What segment lengths are equal? Explain your reasoning. NJ =LJ since JK bisects NL. NK = LK by the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem and the diagram shows ML = MN. ANSWER

GUIDED PRACTICE for Examples 1 and 2 In the diagram, JK is the perpendicular bisector of NL . 2. Find NK. 13 ANSWER

GUIDED PRACTICE for Examples 1 and 2 In the diagram, JK is the perpendicular bisector of NL . 3. Explain why M is on JK . Since ML = MN, M is equidistant from N and L, so by the Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem M is on the perpendicular bisector of NL which is JK. ANSWER

EXAMPLE 3 Use the concurrency of perpendicular bisectors Three snack carts sell frozen yogurt from points A, B, and C outside a city. Each of the three carts is the same distance from the frozen yogurt distributor. FROZEN YOGURT Find a location for the distributor that is equidistant from the three carts.

EXAMPLE 3 Use the concurrency of perpendicular bisectors Theorem 5.4 shows you that you can find a point equidistant from three points by using the perpendicular bisectors of the triangle formed by those points. Copy the positions of points A, B, and C and connect those points to draw ABC. Then use a ruler and protractor to draw the three perpendicular bisectors of ABC. The point of concurrency D is the location of the distributor.
