2. Section 2 Angle Bisectors

3. An ________________________________ is a ray that divides an angle into two angles that are congruent. In the photograph of the hang glider, BD bisects <ABC because it divides the angle into two congruent angles. If BD bisects <ABC, then the measures of <ABD and <DBC are half the measure of <ABC. Also, the measure of <ABC is twice the measure of <ABD or <DBC

4. Example 1: Find Angle Measures BD bisects <ABC, and m<ABC = 110°
