Which statement best explains why the same steps are used to construct the perpendicular to a line segment and the bisector on a line segment? The bisector of a line segment is the perpendicular bisector when using a compass and straightedge. Arcs and line segments have to be drawn for both constructions when using geometric measurement tools. The perpendicular to a line segment is always bisected by the line segment on which it is constructed. The same set of geometric tools is required for both constructions to ensure precision and accuracy.
