1 Chapter 1: Foundations of Geometry
Section 1-2: Measuring and Constructing Segments Megan Frantz Okemos High School Math Instructor

2 I CAN: Find the length of a line segment given the coordinates of the endpoints. Correctly use the term congruent (≅) and use tick marks to identify congruent segments. Recite and use the Segment Addition Postulate to find segment lengths. Use midpoints and segment bisectors to find segment lengths.

3 Length of a line segment
How are line segments and lines different? I CAN: Find the length of a line segment given the coordinates of the endpoints.

4 Example I CAN: Find the length of a line segment given the coordinates of the endpoints.

5 Segment Addition Postulate
I CAN: Recite and use the Segment Addition Postulate to find segment lengths.

6 Congruent Segments Congruent: Congruent Segments: Midpoint:
Segment Bisector: I CAN: Correctly use the term congruent (≅) and use tick marks to identify congruent segments.

7 Example using midpoint
I CAN: Use midpoints and segment bisectors to find segment lengths.

8 CAN YOU? Find the length of a line segment given the coordinates of the endpoints. Correctly use the term congruent (≅) and use tick marks to identify congruent segments. Recite and use the Segment Addition Postulate to find segment lengths. Use midpoints and segment bisectors to find segment lengths.
