bisectors

Lines splitting equally

Bisectors are lines, planes, or other elements that divide something into two equal parts.

In geometry, an angle bisector splits an angle into two equal angles, while a perpendicular bisector crosses a line segment at its midpoint at a right angle: Draw the bisectors of each angle to find the triangle's incenter.
