EXAMPLE 4 Using the Angle Bisector Theorems Find each measure. a. m∠GFJ Because JG — ⊥ FG ⃗ and JH — ⊥ FH ⃗ and JG = JH = 7, FJ ⃗ bisects ∠GFH by the Converse of the Angle Bisector Theorem. So, m∠GFJ = m∠HFJ = 42°. b. RS From the fi gure, QS ⃗ is the angle bisector of ∠PQR. PS = RS Angle Bisector Theorem
An angle bisector is a ray that divides an angle into two angles that are congruent. In the photograph of the hang glider, BD&*( bisects aABC because it divides the angle into two congruent angles. If BD&*( bisects aABC, then the measures of aABD and aDBC are half the measure of aABC. Also, the measure of aABC is twice the measure of aABD or aDBC .

An angle that has a measure of 180° The common endpoint of the two rays that form an angle Words that do not have formal definitions, but there is agreement about what they mean In geometry, the words point, lin∠∠3 and 6 e, and plane are undefined terms. Two angles whose sides form two pairs of opposite rays ∠∠3 and 6 are vertical angles.
CONVERSE OF THE ANGLE BISECTOR THEOREM. If a point in the interior of an angle is equidistant from the sides of the angles, then the point is on the angle bisector. S. Use the diagram to complete the following statements: EXAMPLE 1: If PS is an angle bisector of APB, then AS __________ . If AS BS , then _________ is an angle bisector.

The angle bisector in geometry is the ray, line, or segment which divides a given angle into two equal parts. For example, an angle bisector of a 60-degree angle will divide it into two angles of 30 degrees each. In other words, it divides an angle into two smaller congruent angles. Given below is an image of an angle bisector of ∠AOB.
