1 Chapter 5 Lesson 3 Objective: Objective: To identify properties of perpendicular and angle bisectors.

2 When you have three or more lines intersect in one point they are concurrent. The point which they intersect is the point of concurrency.

3 Theorem 5-6 Theorem 5-6 The perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle are concurrent at a point equidistant from the vertices. Theorem 5-7 Theorem 5-7 The bisectors of the angles of a triangle are concurrent at a point equidistant from the sides.

4 This figure shows ∆QRS with the perpendicular bisectors of its sides concurrent at C. The point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle is called the circumcenter of a triangle.circumcenter of a triangle.

5 Points Q, R, and S are equidistant from C, the circumcenter. The circle is circumscribed about the triangle. circumscribed about

6 This figure shows ∆UTV with the bisectors of its angles concurrent at I. The point of concurrency of the angle bisectors of a triangle is called the incenter of a triangle.incenter of a triangle. Points X, Y, and Z are equidistant from I, the incenter. The circle is inscribed in the triangle.inscribed in
