5.3 Using Angle Bisectors of Triangles

Vocabulary/Theorems Angle bisector: ray that divides angle into 2 congruent angles Point of concurrency: point of intersection of segments, lines, or rays Incenter: point of concurrency of angle bisectors of a triangle Angle Bisector Theorem: If a point is on the bisector of an angle, then it is equidistant from the 2 sides. (distance from point to a line is a perp. path)

Vocabulary/Theorems Converse of Angle Bisector Theorem: Angle bisectors intersect at a point that is equidistant from the sides of a triangle. (Incenter is equidistant from sides)

To Construct Angle Bisectors Place point of compass on the angle vertex Draw an arc through both adjacent sides of the triangle Move the point of the compass to one of the intersection points of the arc and the side Open the compass ½ the distance between the 2 sides and create an arc above the current one Move the compass to the other side and repeat making the 2 arcs intersect Using a straightedge, connect the vertex with this new arc intersection

To Construct Angle Bisectors The incenter is equidistant to each side of the triangle. If repeated with the 3 angle, the bisectors would meet at the point of concurrency, the incenter.

EXAMPLE 1 Use the Angle Bisector Theorems SOLUTION Because JG FG and JH FH and JG = JH = 7, FJ bisects  GFH by the Converse of the Angle Bisector Theorem. So, m  GFJ = m  HFJ = 42°. Find the measure of  GFJ.

EXAMPLE 2 Solve a real-world problem A soccer goalie’s position relative to the ball and goalposts forms congruent angles, as shown. Will the goalie have to move farther to block a shot toward the right goalpost R or the left goalpost L ? SOLUTION The congruent angles tell you that the goalie is on the bisector of LBR. By the Angle Bisector Theorem, the goalie is equidistant from BR and BL. So, the goalie must move the same distance to block either shot.

With a partner, do #1-3 on p. 273

EXAMPLE 3 Use algebra to solve a problem SOLUTION From the Converse of the Angle Bisector Theorem, you know that P lies on the bisector of A if P is equidistant from the sides of A, so when BP = CP. BP = CP Set segment lengths equal. x + 3 = 2x –1 Substitute expressions for segment lengths. 4 = x Solve for x. Point P lies on the bisector of A when x = 4. For what value of x does P lie on the bisector of A ?

GUIDED PRACTICE for Examples 1, 2, and 3 4. Do you have enough information to conclude that QS bisects PQR ? Explain. No; you need to establish that SR QR and SP QP. ANSWER

Do #5 on p. 273

EXAMPLE 4 Use the concurrency of angle bisectors In the diagram, N is the incenter of ABC. Find ND. SOLUTION By the Concurrency of Angle Bisectors of a Triangle Theorem, the incenter N is equidistant from the sides of ABC. So, to find ND, you can find NF in NAF. Use the Pythagorean Theorem stated on page 18.

EXAMPLE 4 Use the concurrency of angle bisectors c = 2 a + b 22 Pythagorean Theorem NF = 2 Substitute known values. 400 =NF Multiply. 144 =NF 2 12 =NF Subtract 256 from each side. Take the positive square root of each side. Because NF = ND, ND = 12.
