1. Chapter 5: Relationships in Triangles

2. Lesson 5.1 Bisectors, Medians, and Altitudes

3. Perpendicular Bisector DefinitionFacts to KnowPoint of Concurrency Example A line, segment or ray that passes through the midpoint of the opposite side and is perpendicular to that side Any point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from the endpoints Circumcenter: The point where 3 perpendicular bisectors intersect - the circumcenter is equidistant from all vertices of the triangle DC B A BD = CD AD BC E is the circumcenter- AE = BE = CE E

4. Median DefinitionFacts to KnowPoint of Concurrency Example A segment that goes from a vertex of the triangle to the midpoint of the opposite side The median splits the opposite side into two congruent segments Small = 1/3 median Big = 2/3 median 2 x small = big Centroid: The point where 3 medians intersect DC B A BD = CD E is the centroid- ED = 1/3 AD AE = 2/3 AD 2 ED = AE E

5. Angle Bisector DefinitionFacts to KnowPoint of Concurrency Example A line, segment, or ray that passes through the middle of an angle and extends to the opposite side Any point on an angle bisector is equidistant from the sides of the triangle Incenter: The point where 3 angle bisectors intersect -the incenter is equidistant from all sides of the triangle DC B A FE BAD = CAD G is the incenter- EG = FG G

6. Altitude DefinitionFacts to KnowPoint of Concurrency Example A segment that goes from a vertex of the triangle to the opposite side and is perpendicular to that side Orthocenter: The point where 3 altitudes intersect DC B A AD BC
