Question

How can you check if a segment is a perpendicular bisector of the side of a triangle?

Answer 1

Check if the segment meets the side at a right angle.
Check if the segment divides the opposite vertex into two congruent angles.
Check if the segment meets the side at a right angle and divides the side into two congruent segments.
Check if the segment meets the side at a right angle and divides the vertex angle into two congruent angles.

Answer 2

Check if the segment meets the side at a right angle and divides the side into two congruent segments

Answer 3

it makes new two triangles ... if two triangles are congruent .. then it's a perpendicular bisector

Answer 4

thanks ! can you also help me with this one

A triangle can be classified by its angles and by its sides.

Part 1: Use these two ways of classification to describe an acute scalene triangle.

Part 2: Name a triangle with only a different side classification as an acute scalene triangle. Identify one similarity and one difference between this new triangle and the acute scalene triangle.

Answer 5

Hopefully you know the various names

sides equilateral, isosceles, scalene
angles acute, right, obtuse

Answer 6

yes

Answer 7

acute scalene triangle

acute means all angles less than 90
scalene means all 3 sides are different lengths

Answer 8

yes i know that

Answer 9

that is the answer to part 1

Answer 10

i figured that but wasnt sure lol

Answer 11

part 2. a different side classification
replace scalene with either equilateral or isosceles. keep acute

Answer 12

so acute equilateral all the angles still must measure less than 90 degrees but all the sides are equal.

Answer 13

is that right?

Answer 14

yes. that is a good answer

Answer 15

thanks i need help with one more

Answer 16

Describe the process to construct an acute scalene triangle with vertices PQR using only a compass and straightedge, where Q is a point on a horizontal line segment XY.
