No, it is not true that a segment's bisector will always be congruent to the segment itself. A segment bisector is a line, ray, or segment that divides the original segment into two equal parts, but the bisector itself does not have to be equal in length to the original segment. For example, if you have a segment of length 10 units, its bisector will simply divide it into two segments of 5 units each, but the bisector itself can be of any length and orientation.
To divide a circumference, you can use the formula for the circumference of a circle, which is (C = 2\pi r), where (r) is the radius. If you want to divide the circumference into equal parts, simply decide how many parts you want and then calculate the length of each segment by dividing the total circumference by that number. For example, if you want to divide the circumference into four equal parts, each segment would be (C/4). Mark these points around the circle to create your divisions.

True. A bisector, by definition, is a line, segment, or ray that divides an angle or a segment into two equal parts. In the case of a segment, it creates two segments of equal length, and for an angle, it creates two angles of equal measure.
Select any one side and divide its length into 5 equal parts. Draw lines that are parallel to the adjacent side to the opposite side. This will divide the rectangle into 5 equal strips.
To divide a straight line segment into equal parts bisect it with the arcs of a compass and a straight edge. Showing with illustration figure
To divide 4 inches into equal parts, first determine how many parts you want to create. For example, if you want to divide it into 4 equal parts, you would simply divide 4 inches by 4, resulting in each part being 1 inch long. If you want a different number of parts, just divide 4 by that number to find the length of each part. Use a ruler to mark the divisions accurately.
Select any one side. Divide its length into 5 equal parts. Do the same to the opposite side. Join the corresponding divisions. You will then have 5 equal rectangular divisions of the square.
When you divide something into two equal parts you are halving it. This process is often used to teach fractions in school.
The midpoint divides a line segment into congruent parts.
