Unit 5 Lesson 2 Perpendicular and Angle Bisectors
Unit 5 Lesson 2: Perpendicular and Angle Bisectors
Lesson Overview
Perpendicular Bisectors
What You Will Learn
- Properties of perpendicular bisectors and angle bisectors
- How to use properties of perpendicular bisectors and angle bisectors to solve
Overview
This lesson will teach you how to use perpendicular and angle bisectors' properties. Think about the relationships for a bulletin board to hang straight. You will explore these relationships in this lesson.
Essential Understanding
There is a special relationship between the points on the perpendicular bisector of a segment and the endpoints of the segment.
