What is the difference between a midpoint and bisector?

A midpoint is a point that splits a segment in half.

A bisector is a line, ray, or segment that splits something in half.

BONUS 50: What are two types of bisectors?

What is the name for a line that crosses over two or more other lines? Usually, this is over two parallel lines.

A transversal


BONUS 50: What two words does transversal translate into?

300
What must happen for two lines to be parallel?

They must NEVER intersect, or the distance between them must always be the same.

300

True or False: Perpendicular lines may form obtuse or acute angles.

FALSE
