1. A segment bisector splits a segment into two equal pieces. An angle bisector divides an angle into two congruent adjacent angles. 2. The midpoint of a segment is the point that bisects it. The midpoint formula can be used to find the coordinates of the midpoint between two points. 3. Compass and straightedge are tools used for geometric constructions. An example shows finding the midpoint and determining an unknown endpoint of a segment using the midpoint formula.
