"^ bisector" means what ?

highschoolmom2010 · Answer

intersects at an angle

ganeshie8 · Answer

does it mean "perpendicular bisector" or "angle bisector"

highschoolmom2010 · Answer

angle is like that < symbol

highschoolmom2010 · Answer

so i am not sure what the ^ symbol means

ganeshie8 · Answer

yea, here we need to assume it means a perpendicular bisector.

ganeshie8 · Answer

cuz oly this assumption leads to unique answer

highschoolmom2010 · Answer

ok so then k would be the midpoint of both listed lines correct

anonymous · Answer

i think answer is A, and that symbol i guess that means angle too....

ganeshie8 · Answer

thats correct, but the q is asking about whats wrong

ganeshie8 · Answer

If DE is perpendicular bisector of JL, then

B. DE $\perp $ JL is true by definition
C. you have already figured out
D. DJ= DL cuz every line on perpendicular bisector stays equidistant from the end points.

highschoolmom2010 · Answer

so the only one you left out was  option A

ganeshie8 · Answer

Yes ! A need not be true cuz the points D and E are random
