Exploring Perpendicular and Angle Bisectors

What does the term 'equidistant' mean?

• A point that is on the same line as two objects

• A point that is the same distance from two or more objects

• A point that is farthest from all objects

• A point that is closer to one object than another

According to the perpendicular bisector theorem, if a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, what can be concluded?

• The point is not related to the segment

What is the converse of the perpendicular bisector theorem?

• If a point is on the segment, it is equidistant from the endpoints

• If a point is not on the perpendicular bisector, it is not equidistant from the endpoints

• If a point is equidistant from the endpoints, it is on the perpendicular bisector

• If a point is on the perpendicular bisector, it is equidistant from the endpoints
