1. Use a protractor. Draw a line segment perpendicular to AB that passes through P.
a) b)

B B

P
A

c) Are either of the lines you drew perpendicular bisectors of AB? How can you tell?

2. Sketch a rectangle. Clearly label any parallel or perpendicular line segments in your sketch.

3. The angles  a and  b are a linear pair. Identify the three other linear pairs
a
in the diagram. b d
c
 ______ and  ______
 ______ and  ______
 ______ and  ______
Bonus: If  a = 110o, what are the values of the other angles?

4. Draw ∆ABC, an equilateral triangle with AC = 5 cm. Use a

5. Lines of symmetry in polygons are either angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors of sides or
both. Sketch three polygons to show each of these three situations.
angle bisector perpendicular bisector of side both

Bonus: In a regular hexagon there are two types of lines of

symmetry. Which ones? Use a sketch to show your answer.

6. The foot of a ladder makes a 60o angle with the ground. The top of the ladder rests on a wall
perpendicular to the ground.
a) Make a sketch to show this situation.
b) What angle does the ladder form with the wall? ___________
How do you know?

c) How can you tell that the distance from the top of the ladder to the ground is longer than the
distance from the base of the ladder to the wall?

__________________________________________________________________________
Bonus: The ladder is moved so that the angle formed by the foot of the ladder and the ground
is 45o. How does the distance from the top of the ladder to the ground compare to the
distance from the foot of the ladder to the wall? Explain.
