How many perpindicuar bisectors can a line segment have?
Since there is no such word as "perpindicuar", it is difficult to be sure. A line segment can have only one perpendicular bisector.
Why does a line segment have one midpoint and can have many bisectors?
A bisector is a line (or line segment) which passes through the midpoint. You can have multiple lines intersect at this one point, and all of them will bisect the original line segment, since they pass through its midpoint. A perpendicular bisector passes through the midpoint, and also is perpendicular to the original line segment, so there will be only one of those.
What is a line that is perpendicular to the line segment intersecting the line segment at its midpoint?
perpendicular bisector
What is one pair of perpendicular line segment?
Line segment
The shortest segment from a point to a line?
. . . is the segment perpendicular to the line.
What are perpendicular bisectors?
A line that is perpendicular to the segment of a plane and passes through the midpoint.
How many perpendicular bisectors can a line segment have?
Only one.
How many perpindicuar bisectors can a line segment have?
Since there is no such word as "perpindicuar", it is difficult to be sure. A line segment can have only one perpendicular bisector.
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.

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 line that is perpendicular to the line segment intersecting the line segment at its midpoint?
perpendicular bisector
What is a line perpendicular to a segment at the segment's midpoint?
It's called a perpendicular bisector of the line segment.
which of the following will be constructed when the two endpoints of a line segment are folded so that they line up?
A) Midpoint Of A Line Segment B) Parallel Lines C) Angle Bisector D) Perpendicular Bisector
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.
