Abstract

Students have some difficulty with the concepts and constructions of the altitudes, the perpendicular bisectors of the sides, the medians, and the angle bisectors of the triangle. Some students seem to show little understanding of the words of the definitions, and the mechanics of straightedge and compass construction often do not help to clarify their understanding of the definitions.
