Can a plane bisect a segment?
No
What of a segment is a line segment or ray that is perpendicular to a segment at its midpoint?
Perpendicular Bisector
What is a perpendicular bisector of a line segment?
The perpendicular bisector of a line segment AB is the straight line perpendicular to AB through the midpoint of AB.
State the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem and its converse as a biconditional?
Biconditional Statement for: Perpendicular Bisector Theorem: A point is equidistant if and only if the point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment. Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem: A point is on the perpendicular bisector of the segment if and only if the point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment.
Are the diagonals of rectangles perpendicular?
In general they are not; they are perpendicular only if the rectangle is also a sqare. However, the diagonals of a retangle have another attribute: They are of equal length and bisect each other.
Is a line segment character of a perpendicular bisect?
Yes, it is.
If a point is on the perpendicular bisect or of a segment then is it what?
equidistant from the endpoints of a segment -odewah chin chin
Can a line perpendicular to a segment also bisect the segment?
Sure. There's even a special name for that line. It's called the "perpendicular bisector" of the segment.
Is it possible to bisect a segment with a perpindicular segment using a compass and straightedge?
Yes
Can a segment bisect bisect a segment?
No
Must a bisector of a segment always be a perpendicular line?
Not always because the diagonals of a rectangle bisect each other but they are not perpendicular to each other.
What is a segment bisect?
Bisect a segment is to divide the line segment into 2
Can a segment bisect a segment?
No
Is bisecting a segment with a perpendicular segment possible?
Yes and they will intersect at right angles
Is a midpoint bisect a segment?
If your question was: Does a midpoint bisect a segment? Then yes it does... It divides it in half.
How can you use perpendicular and angle bisectors to form a 45 degree angle?
You draw a perpendicular at the end of a line segment. You then bisect the right angle formed between the original line and the perpendicular. The resulting angle will be 45 degrees.
To find the midpoint of a segment first mark a point not on the segment then fold the paper so that the point you marked and a point on the line are included in the fold true or false?
False that is to find the perpendicular bisect.
