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 segment that intersects another segment at a 90 degree angle at the midpoint?
It's the perpendicular bisector.
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 do you find the coordinate of the midpoint of a line segment?
The 'x' coordinate of the midpoint is the average of the 'x' coordinates of the segment's ends. The 'y' coordinate of the midpoint is the average of the 'y' coordinates of the segment's ends.
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.
A segment line or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
A Segment Bisector
What segment line or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
It is a 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 segment that intersects another segment at a 90 degree angle at the midpoint?
It's the perpendicular bisector.
Any line or subset of a line that intersects a line segment at its midpoint?
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.
How do you use the word midpoint in a sentence?
We learned that the midpoint of a segment divides that segment equally.
