1 age 1 of ngle isectors and erpendicular isectors oal Use angle bisectors and perpendicular bisectors. ey Words distance from a point to a line equidistant angle bisector p. 61 perpendicular bisector The distance from a point to a line is measured by the length of the perpendicular segment from the point to the line. When a point is the same distance from one line as it is from another line, the point is equidistant from the two lines. TOR 5.3 ngle isector Theorem Words If a point is on the bisector of an angle, then it is equidistant from the two sides of the angle.
