What is a segment that intersects the midpoint of a segment and is perpent to that segment?
A segment that intersects the midpoint of another segment and is perpendicular to it is known as the "perpendicular bisector." This line segment divides the original segment into two equal parts at the midpoint and forms right angles (90 degrees) with the original segment. The perpendicular bisector has important properties in geometry, particularly in triangle constructions and circumcircles.
What is the different between a perpendicular bisector and a midpoint?
A midpoint is a point. It's the point exactly halfway between the endsof a line segment.A perpendicular bisector is a line. It's the line that passes through themidpoint of the segment, and is perpendicular to the segment.
What are the steps for finding the perpendicular bisect of a line segment?
To find the perpendicular bisector of a line segment, first, determine the midpoint of the segment by averaging the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the endpoints. Next, calculate the slope of the line segment and find the negative reciprocal of that slope to get the slope of the perpendicular bisector. Then, use the midpoint and the new slope to write the equation of the perpendicular bisector in point-slope form. Finally, you can convert it to slope-intercept form if needed.
Which equation is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment with endpoints -2 4 and 6 8?
Endpoints: (-2, 4) and (6, 8) Slope: 1/2 Perpendicular slope: -2 Midpoint: (2, 6) Perpendicular bisector equation: y = -2x+10
