Which sentence states a property or a definition used in the construction of a perpendicular bisector?
Hey there! Welcome to OpenStudy! It looks like there are some answer choices for your question. Could you post those?
A line that intersects a line segment at an angle of 90° is parallel to the line segment. A line that bisects a line segment is necessarily perpendicular to the line segment. Any two points equidistant from the midpoint of a line segment lie on its perpendicular bisector. Any point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from each endpoint of the line segment.
to bisect something means to cut it into two equal parts.
Does that help?
yes thank you
Which answer did you pick?
A line that bisects a line segment is necessarily perpendicular to the line segment.
it was wrong but it was just a tutorial so its ok, learn from your mistakes
It should have been "Any point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from each endpoint of the line segment."
yep
Could you close this question so other users know that it has been answered already?
