5.1 PERPENDICULARS AND BISECTORS EXAMPLE 1 In the diagram, MN is the perpendicular Bisector of ST. What segment lengths in the diagram are equal? Explain why Q is on T 12 Q N M 12 MN bisects ST, so NS = NT. Because M is on the perpendicular bisector of ST, MS=MT (by the perpendicular bisector theorem). The diagram shows that QS=QT=12. QS=QT, so Q is equidistant from S and T. By the Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem, Q is on the perpendicular bisector of ST, which is MN. S

They will all be coming from different places in the city, and they want to make the meeting location the same distance from each person. Explain why using the circumcenter as the location for the meeting would be the fairest for all. Copy the triangle and locate the circumcenter. Tell what segments are congruent. Since the circumcenter is the same distance from each of the vertices, so each person will have to travel the same distance. PA = PB = PC C A B
