What is a segment bisector?
I line that intersects a segment at its midpoint.
A line segment that intersects with two points on a circle is called what?
A line segment that intersects with or joins two points on a circle is called a chord.
How do you find the midpoint of a line segment?
The midpoint of a line segment would be to add up all of the numbers in the segment. Then divide by the number of numbers that were added. For example if a 1, 3, and 8 were added, divide by 3. This will give the midpoint of the line segment.
What is a line perpendicular to a segment at the segment's midpoint?
It's called a perpendicular bisector of the line segment.
What is A line segment that forms a right angle with another segment at its midpoint?
It is perpendicular line segment
A line that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
A line that intersects a segment at its midpoint bisects the segment.
What is a segment bisector?
I line that intersects a segment at its midpoint.
What segment line or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
It is a bisector.
A segment line or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
A Segment Bisector
What is a segment or line that intersects the midpoint of a segment and is pepindicular to that segment called?
perpendicular bisector
What point line ray or segment that intersects a segment at its midpoint called?
It is called a bisector.
What is a line segment or ray that intersects the midpoint of a line segment at a 90 degrees angle?
Such a line is called a perpendicular bisector.
How do you find midpoint of a segment?
Take a compass, extend it about 3/4 of the length of the segment. Then from one end of the segment, draw a 180 degree arc. From the other end draw another arc. Connect the points where the arcs intersect. Where the line intersects with the segment is the midpoint of the segment. That is how you bisect a segment to find the midpoint - geometrically.
Why a line segment has only one midpoint but can have many bisectors?
All bisectors intersect the line segment at the midpoint. There can be multiple bisectors, intersecting at the midpoint at different angles, but they all intersect the line segment at its midpoint. The midpoint separates the line segment into two equal halves.
What is a midpoint?
A point on a line segment that divides the segment into two equal parts is a midpoint.
A line segment may have more than midpoint?
A line segment cannot have more than one midpoint or else you will be creating multiple line segments that are connected to each other. A line segment can only have one midpoint.
Midpoint of a segment?
The middle point of a line segment.
