  1. 1-5: Midpoints and Segment Congruence Expectations: G1.1.5: Given a line segment in terms of its endpoints in the coordinate plane, determine its length and midpoint. G1.1.6: Recognize Euclidean geometry as an axiom system. Know the key axioms and understand the meaning of and distinguish between undefined terms (e.g., point, line, and plane), axioms, definitions, and theorems. 1.5: Midpoints

  2. Midpoint • Defn: M is the midpoint of AB iff M is ____________ A and B and __________. x x B A M 1.5: Midpoints

  3. Locating the midpoint • a. Locate A and B anywhere on your paper. • b. Draw AB. • c. Fold A onto B and crease your paper. • d. The intersection of your crease and is the midpoint of AB. 1.5: Midpoints

  4. Midpoint on a Number Line • a. Draw a number line with at least 10 integers on it. • b. Locate A and B on your number line. • c. Draw AB. • d. Fold your paper to find the midpoint of AB. • e. Develop an algebraic method for finding the midpoint of a segment on a number line. 1.5: Midpoints

  5. Midpoint on a Coordinate Grid • a. Locate A and B on a coordinate grid s.t. all coordinates are even. • b. Draw AB. • c. Fold your paper to determine the midpoint. • d. Develop an algebraic method to determine the coordinates of the midpoint of AB. 1.5: Midpoints

  6. Midpoint Formula • Part 1: On a number line, the coordinate of the midpoint of a segment whose endpoints are a and b is ______ . • Ex: What is the coordinate of the midpoint of a segment on a number line with endpoints –4 and 12? 1.5: Midpoints

  7. Midpoint Formula • Part 2: On a coordinate grid, the coordinates of the midpoint of a segment whose endpoints are (x1, y1) and (x2, y2) are 1.5: Midpoints

  8. What is the midpoint of the line segment between points (2,6) and (3,8)? • (2, 2.5) • (2.5, 2) • (5, 4.5) • (4, 5.5) • (2.5, 7) 1.5: Midpoints

  9. If M is the midpoint of AB, A(4,10) and M(-2,6), what are the coordinates of B? 1.5: Midpoints

  10. Segment Bisector • Defn: A line or a segment is a segment bisector iff it contains the _________ of the segment. l Y A M B Z YZ and l are bisectors of AB. 1.5: Midpoints

  11. Congruent Segments • Defn: Segments with endpoints A and B and C and D are congruent, written AB ≅ CD, iff 1.5: Midpoints

  12. Congruent Segments • If AB ≅ CD, A B C D These marks are used to show the segments are congruent. 1.5: Midpoints

  13. Congruent Segments • If AB ≅ CD, 10 cm ? cm A B C D then AB = CD. 1.5: Midpoints
