Unit 2, Lesson 8

The Perpendicular Bisector Theorem

$Course Icon$

Integrated Math 1

Practice

Problem 1

Each statement is always true. Select all statements for which the converse is also always true.

Statement: If 2 angles are vertical, then they are congruent. Converse: If 2 angles are congruent, then they are vertical.
Statement: If 2 lines are perpendicular, then they intersect to form 4 right angles. Converse: If 2 lines intersect to form 4 right angles, then the 2 lines are perpendicular.
Statement: If a point is equidistant from the 2 endpoints of a segment, then it lies on the perpendicular bisector of the segment. Converse: If a point lies on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the 2 endpoints of the segment.

Statement: If a triangle is isosceles, the base angles are congruent. Converse: If the base angles of a triangle are congruent, then the triangle is isosceles.

Statement: If 2 angles form a straight angle, then they are supplementary. Converse: If 2 angles are supplementary, then they form a straight angle.

Problem 2

In isosceles triangle \(DAC\), segment \(AD\) is congruent to \(AC\). Kiran knows that the base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent. What additional information does Kiran need to know in order to show that \(AB\) is a perpendicular bisector of segment \(CD\)?

<p>Isosceles triangle DAC with AD congruent to AC. Line segment AB where B is in between point C and D.</p>

Problem 3

Han and Priya were making a kite. Han cut out a piece of fabric so that there were two short sides of the same length on top and two long sides of the same length on the bottom. Priya cut two pieces of wood to go across the diagonals of the kite. They attached the wood like this:

Han asked Priya to measure the angle to make sure the pieces of wood were perpendicular. Priya said, “If we were careful about the lengths of the sides of the fabric, we don’t need to measure the angle. It has to be a right angle.”

Complete Priya’s explanation to Han.

Problem 4

ForLesson 7: Angle-Side-Angle Triangle Congruence

Prove triangle \(ADE\) is congruent to triangle \(CBE\).

<p>Triangles ADE and CBE meet only at point E. Angles A and C are congruent. Sides AE and CE are congruent.</p> — \(\angle A \cong \angle C, \overline{AE} \cong \overline{CE}\)

Problem 5

ForLesson 6: Side-Angle-Side Triangle Congruence

Triangle \(DAC\) is isosceles. What information do you need to show that triangle \(DBA\) is congruent to triangle \(CBA\) by the Side-Angle-Side Triangle Congruence Theorem?

<p>Triangle A C D. Point B lies inside A C D. Segments B A, B C, and B D are drawn in, creating 3 smaller triangles. Sides D A and A C have single tick marks.</p> — \(\overline{AD} \cong \overline{AC} \)

Problem 6

ForLesson 5: Points, Segments, and Zigzags

Write a sequence of rigid motions to take figure \(CBA\) to figure \(MLK\).

<p>Two figures, C B A and M L K.</p> — \(\overline{CB} \cong \overline{ML} , \overline{BA} \cong \overline{LK} , \angle CBA \cong \angle MLK\)

Problem 7

ForLesson 7: Construction Techniques 5: Squares

Here is a quadrilateral inscribed in a circle.

Jada says that it is square because folding it along the horizontal dashed line and then the vertical dashed line gives 4 congruent sides. Do you agree with Jada?

Quadrilateral inscribed in a circle, diagonals marked as a right angle.
