ANGLE BISECTORS (Chapter 2.2)
VOCABULARY • Angle Bisector: a ray that divides an angle into two congruent angles
D A 110 B C BD bisects ABC, and m ABC = 110. Therefore, the m ABD and m BDC is half of m ABC. 110 m ABD and m BDC = 55 is 55. 2
EXAMPLE #1 m GHJ = 52 HK is the angle bisector. JHK = 26 & m m GHK = 26
EXAMPLE #2 m GHJ = 90 HK is the angle bisector. JHK = 45 & m m GHK = 45
EXAMPLE #3 m GHJ = 161 HK is the angle bisector. JHK = 80.5 & m m GHK = 80.5
46 m LMP 46 m NMP 92 m LMN obtuse MP bisects LMN
29 m RQS 29 m PQS 58 m PQR acute QS bisects PQR
45 m RQS 45 m PQS 90 m PQR right QS bisects PQR
60 m RQS 60 m PQS 120 m PQR obtuse QS bisects PQR
RQ bisects PRS. Find the value of x. 6x = 84 6x + 1 = 85 -1 -1 6 6 6x = 84 x = 14
9x = 8x + 3 x + 12 = 55 -8x -8x -12 -12 x = 3 x = 43
