If a point is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment then it is?
on the perpendicular bisector of the segment.
What is the difference between a perpendicular line and a perpendicular bisector?
A perpendicular line is one that is at right angle to another - usually to a horizontal line. A perpendicular bisector is a line which is perpendicular to the line segment joining two identified points and which divides that segment in two.
What is a segment bisector?
I line that intersects a segment at its midpoint.
Can a segment bisector split a segment into two equal parts?
The term bisector means that bi is the two of something (a cycle with two wheels is a bicycle, for instance). Therefore a bisector will split a segment, area, angle, into two equal parts.
If a point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment then it is on?
on the perpendicular bisector of the segment.
What is the equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points of 3 5 and 7 7?
y = -2x+16 which can be expressed in the form of 2x+y-16 = 0
What divides a segment or angle into 2 equal parts?
A segment bisector or angle bisector. A bisector can be a line, line segment, or ray.
How do you find the midpoint the slope the perpendicular slope and the equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points of 3 5 and 7 7?
Midpoint = (3+7)/2, (5+7)/2 = (5, 6) Slope of line segment = 7-5 divided by 7-3 = 2/4 = 1/2 Slope of the perpendicular = -2 Equation of the perpendicular bisector: y-y1 = m(x-x1) y-6 =-2(x-5) y = -2x+10+6 Equation of the perpendicular bisector is: y = -2x+16

What is the difference between a perpendicular line and a perpendicular bisector?
A perpendicular line is one that is at right angle to another - usually to a horizontal line. A perpendicular bisector is a line which is perpendicular to the line segment joining two identified points and which divides that segment in two.
What is the perpendicular bisector equation to the line segment of -1 -6 and 5 -8?
Points: (-1, -6) and (5, -8) Midpoint: (2, -7) Perpendicular slope: 3 Perpendicular bisector equation: y = 3x -13
Can a segment have more then one bisector?
No, the definition of a bisector is the point at which a segment is divided into two equal halves. Of course, a segment may be divided further. However, there can be only one bisector of any one segment.
What is the perpendicular bisector equation meeting the line segment of -4 8 and 0 -2?
2x -5y +19 = 0
What is the perpendicular bisector theorem?
If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant, or the same distance, from the endpoints of the segment.
what is true about the creased bisector and the line segment that is bisected?
The bisector and the line segment are perpendicular to each other.
Where does a bisector instersect a segment?
In the middle that is where the name bisector comes from.
State the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem and its converse as a biconditional?
Biconditional Statement for: Perpendicular Bisector Theorem: A point is equidistant if and only if the point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment. Converse of the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem: A point is on the perpendicular bisector of the segment if and only if the point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment.
