Scope  (2)

Find an interior angle bisector:

Find an exterior angle bisector:

Properties & Relations  (4)

AngleBisector finds the interior angle bisector by default:

The angle bisector divides the angle into two equal angles:

The exterior angle bisector divides the exterior angle into two equal angles:

TriangleConstruct[{a,b,c},"AngleBisector"] is equivalent to AngleBisector[{a,b,c}]:

Possible Issues  (2)

The three points must be distinct:
