A point on the angle bisector is equidistant from the sides ? EG is the _____ of <FEH and GF is _____ to EF and GH is ? of the angle. _____ to EH therefore FG ≅ _____. ? ? Answer BX is the angle bisector of <ABC therefore XY ≅ XZ and <XYB and <XZB are right angles.

Slide 31 / 165 Slide 32 / 165 If X lies on the interior of ABC and is Tell whether the information in the equidistant from the sides of ABC does diagram allows you to conclude that A is point X lie on the angle bisector of ABC? on the bisector of Y. Answer Hint: Construct BX Answer Remember: For a point to be equidistant to a ray it must be the perpendicular distance. Discuss a plan for the proof of the converse of the angle bisector theorem. Slide 33 / 165 Slide 34 / 165 Fill in the blanks according to the Converse of the Angle Bisector Theorem diagram below. If a point lies on the interior of an angle and is equidistant from the sides of the angle then the point lies on the angles ? ? ? EH _____EF and GH ______GF also EH _____ GH therefore H is bisector of the angle. ? ? _____ from the sides of EFG and lies on the _____ of EFG. If X is on the interior of ABC and equidistant from the sides of ABC then X lies on the angle bisector of Answer ABC.
