Angle Bisectors
-The space between 2 connecting lines
Acute
-An angle that is less than 90o.
Obtuse
-An angle that is greater than 90o and less than 180o.
Right Angles
-Are angles that are exactly 90o.
Straight Angles
-Are angles that are exactly 180o.
Angle Bisector
-The line that divides an angle into two equal parts.
[Equal angles are marked with the same symbol, O.]
Method 1 to make an Angle Bisector: Fold paper.
Method 2 to make an Angle Bisector:
Get a compass and make an arc (angle for this step) from the vertex that crosses both arms. Label them X, Y. Then make another arc but from X, Y. They must be the same distance from its point, and have to be intersecting. Now when your done that, draw a dotted line down the X,Y's arc intersection. That is your Angle Bisector. It should look like this.
Method 3 to make an Angle Bisector:
Grab a protractor. An <>140o. Divide your angle measurement by 2. 140o/2=70o. (There are more steps, but I missed them, and I do not have the proper diagram drawn. I apologize, but i hope you have an idea for what to do next.
HOMEWORK
1. Make a 68o angle. Then draw the angle bisector using two methods.
2. How could you divide an angle into four equal parts?
3. Has each angle been bisected? How do you know?
Sorry I missed some parts. If I did, be sure to comment on this and tell me.
Hope this was helpful!

Geometry
- they are marked using arrows.
- they are marked using a small arrow.
measure the distance from: A to B = 8.9 cm B to C = 8.9 cm
E to F = 8.9 cm F to G = 8.9 cm
I to J = 8.9 cm J to K = 8.9 cm
Identify any parallel line segment line:
AE is parallel to BF
BF is parallel to CG
EI is parallel to FJ
FJ is parallel to GK
AI is parallel to CK
Parallel lines are always the same distance apart. No matter where you measure as long as you measure using perpendicular lines.
Now using the same picture ^, identify any perpendicular line segments.
AE is perpendicular to DF
BF is perpendicular to EG
CG is perpendicular to FH
1. Are line segments AE and DF parallel?
2. Are line segments DF and BE perpendicular?
3. Are line segments AC and BG perpendicular?
How do you know?
4. Would a line segment joining A to D be parallel to a line segment BE?
How do you know?
Three Ways To Make Perpendicular Lines
5. Now you can input your right angle in the top right box or the bottom left.
The second way of making bisect perpendicular lines.
1.Using a right triangle draw a line segment on a piece of paper.
2.Still using the right triangle find half of the line segment that you made and make a little mark.
3.Using the right angle of your triangle make another line segment intersecting your original one.
4.Now you can make your ninety degree mark for your right angle.
The third way to make a bisect perpendicular line.
I just found a video to help you with perpendicular lines using a compass.
Just click on this link.
