Median
Picture: Both sides are congruent

EQ: What are the differences between medians, altitudes, and perpendicular bisectors?
Midpoint-If you have a midpoint- then the segments on both sides are CONGRUENT! That is why you will see the “tick marks”For the measure of the entire line- add both sides!

AD and EB are medians:
So if you are given the length of the entire side, how do you find a missing segment?If you are given the length of a segment, how to you find the entire side?If you have a median- what do you know about each side?

CD
If CD = 2x + 5, BD = 4x – 1, and AE = 5x –2, find BE.
In CE and AD are medians.ABC,
BD = CD 4x – 1= 2x + 5
2x = 6 x = 3
AE = BEBE = 5x – 2BE = 5(3) – 2
BE = 13
The intersection of the medians is called the CENTROID.
How many medians does a triangle have?
Draw the Picture:
When three or more lines or segments meet at the same point.
Concurrent:
Theorem 6-1
Distance from vertex to
centroid is twice the distance from
centroid to midpoint.

Altitude

EQ: What are the differences between medians, altitudes, and perpendicular bisectors?
Altitude
The altitude is the “true
height” of the triangle.
Tell whether each red segment is an altitude of the triangle.The altitude is the “true height” of
the triangle.
Perpendicular Bisector
Picture:
Both sides are congruent- make sure you see this or it is NOT a perpendicular bisector
Tell whether each red segment is an perpendicular bisector of the triangle.
Can you have both?Can it be both an altitude and perpendicular bisector?
Quick AssessmentWhat is the difference between altitude and perpendicular bisector?What is an altitude?What is a perpendicular bisector?
How can the segment be both- altitude and perpendicular bisector?

EQ: What are the differences between medians, altitudes, and perpendicular bisectors?
Angle bisector of a triangle : is the bisector of each angle of the triangle. (cuts each angle in
half)
Incenter of the triangle: where the angle bisectors meet.
