The Corollaries

• An equilateral triangle is also equiangular.
• An equilateral triangle has angles that measure
  60.
• The bisector of the vertex angle of an isosceles
  triangle is the perpendicular bisector of the
  base.

Median of a Triangle

• A segment connecting a vertex to the midpoint of
  the opposite side.

29
Altitude of a Triangle

• A segment drawn a vertex perpendicular to the
  opposite side.

30
Perpendicular Bisector

• A segment (line or ray) that is perpendicular to
  and passes through the midpoint of another
  segment.

31
Angle Bisector

• A ray that cuts an angle into two congruent
  angles.

32
Theorem 4-5/6

• A point lies on the perpendicular bisector of a
  segment only if it is equidistant from the
  endpoints.

33
Theorem 4-7/8
