How do you know that the ray is a perpendicular bisector?
Is it possible for a perpendicular bisector to also be an altitude?
Angle Bisector
Consider this applet about Angle Bisectors.
Drag the points to explore what is happening.
What is the ray bisecting?
How do you know that the ray is an angle bisector?
Is it possible for the angle bisector to also be a median?
