Ok, I'm having a little trouble rewriting the following into if-then statments:
a) Two distinct lines hvae at most one point in common.
f) Any point on the bisector of an angle is equidistant from the sides of the angle.
If you don't know what I mean...here's an example..
The angles at the base of an isosceles triangle are equal.
If the angles in a triangle at the base are equal then the triangle is an isosceles.
Anyway's, please help me understand the other two a, and f

The "if" part is implied in the given, while the "then" part is implied in the subordinate clause or descriptor clause. (this is the clause that can be removed and the sentence will still be a complete sentence.)
It can get a little confusing, that's why you're getting different answers. But if you break it down that way you'll get it....
If two lines are distinct then they have at most one point in common.
If a point is equidistant from the sides of an angle then it is on the bisector. (note that in this one, and also in the example you gave, the consequent or "then" part is in the descriptor clause, even though it comes before the verb, that's why it's in the consequent.
