What does the angle bisector theorem state?
What is, if a point is on the bisector of an angle, then it is equidistant from the two sides of the angle.

What is the Converse of the Hinge Theorem?
What is, if two sides of one triangle are congruent to 2 sides of another triangle, and the third side of the first triangle is longer than the third side of the second, then the included angle of the first is larger than the included angle of the second.
