corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent####midsegment of a triangle
makes a right angle
may or may not begin at a vertex####What does a angle bisector of a triangle do?
bisects the angle it's drawn from
always from the vertex to the side opposite####What is altitude of a triangle?
the height of a triangle
always forms a right angle with the side it intersects
always starts at a vertex and intersects the opposite side
may be inside, outside or on the triangle####what is median of a triangle?
always from the vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side
bisects the side opposite the vertex####Angle Bisector Theorem and its converse
a point is on a bisector of an angle, if and only if, it is equidistant from the two sides of the angle####Triangle Inequality Theorem
each segment intersects exactly two other segments at their endpoints####triangle
3 sided polygon####quadrilateral
