Bisector Theorem.
Example 1A: Finding the Length of a Segment
Given VU // TS, find US.

2. Example 1B.: Finding the Length of a Segment
Given PQ//LM, find PN.
Example 2: Verifying Segments are Parallel
A. Verify that
AC = 36 cm, and BC = 27 cm.
Verify that

3. Example 3A Art Application
Suppose that an artist decided to make a larger sketch of the trees.
In the figure,
AB = 4.5 in.
BC = 2.6 in.
CD = 4.1 in.
KL = 4.9 in.
