Warm Up 1) What is the difference between a perpendicular bisector and an angle bisector? 2) True or False: A segment bisects another segment and creates four right triangles. HELP GEOMETRY Paper Folding Bisectors page 272 baby blue section share a book with your partner 1) Make a conjecture about the bisectors of the angles of a triangle. 2) Make a conjecture about the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle. HELP GEOMETRY Concurrent- When three or more lines intersect in one point Point of Concurrency- The point at which they intersect 3) Is there any relationship between the lengths of the point of concurrency and the vertex or sides of the triangle? HELP GEOMETRY Theorems: The perpendicular bisectors of the sides of a triangle are concurrent at a point equidistant from the vertices. The bisectors of the angles of a triangle are concurrent at a point equidistant from the sides.

GEOMETRY Concurrent Lines, Medians, and Altitudes LESSON 5-3 Additional Examples (continued) Vocab: Circumcenter of a triangle Circumscribed about a triangle The lines y = 4 and x = 3 intersect at the point (3, 4). This point is the center of the circle that circumscribes HELP XYZ. Quick Check GEOMETRY Circumcenter of a Triangle- The point of concurrency of the perpendicular bisectors of a triangle Circle is circumscribed about the triangle. Incenter of a Triangle- The point of concurrency of the angle bisectors of a triangle We can inscribe a circle in the triangle. HELP GEOMETRY Median of a Triangle Is a segment whose endpoints are a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side. Are the medians of one triangle concurrent? If so, is there a relationship between the median and a point of concurrency? Centroid- Point of Concurrency of the medians HELP GEOMETRY Concurrent Lines, Medians, and Altitudes LESSON 5-3 Additional Examples M is the centroid of WOR, and WM = 16. Find WX. The centroid is the point of concurrency of the medians of a triangle. The medians of a triangle are concurrent at a point that is two thirds the distance from each vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side. (Theorem 5-8) Because M is the centroid of 2 WM = 3 WX 16 = 2 WX 3 24 = WX HELP 2 WOR, WM = 3 WX. Theorem 5-8 Substitute 16 for WM. 3 Multiply each side by 2 . Quick Check GEOMETRY Altitude of a Triangle is the perpendicular segment from a vertex to the line containing the opposite side. Theorem: The lines that contain the altitudes of a triangle are concurrent. In your notes, draw the altitude of a triangle for an Acute Triangle, Right Triangle and Obtuse Triangle. HELP GEOMETRY Concurrent Lines, Medians, and Altitudes LESSON 5-3 Additional Examples Is KX a median, an altitude, neither, or both? Because LX = XM, point X is the midpoint of LM, and KX is a median of KLM. Because KX is perpendicular to LM at point X, KX is an altitude. So KX is both a median and an altitude.

Try different length straws Find a relationship between the lengths of the sides that complete a triangle and that would not complete a triangle. What conclusion can you draw about the smallest angles and largest angles with respect to the sides? HELP GEOMETRY What do we notice….. Triangle inequality Theorem. The sum of any two side lengths of a triangle is greater than the third side length.
