The partner lengths for a line segment 8 cm long are 1cm + 7cm, 2cm + 6cm, 3cm + 5 cm, and 4 cm + 4cm
To bisect anything is to cut it in half. So if one line segment bisects another line segment, then the second segment is divided into two equal lengths.
The problem is that the width of a line is zero. No drawing instrument can manage that!

A trapezoid is a 4 sided quadrilateral with a pair of opposite parallel lines of different lengths.

A rectangle with equal side lengths is a square.You draw one straight line segment of the required length. At each of its ends you draw a perpendicular, both facing in the same direction. Make these of the same length as well. Join the other ends of these perpendiculars.

It is impossible to draw a straight line.

A "line" does. A "line segment" does not. Most people interpret "line" to mean "line segment" (without realising it) and so would conclude that a line does not go on forever. A "line segment" is a line between two points, which is what you would draw if told to draw a "line" on a piece of paper.

First of all draw a line segment that is about 2 cm long between two points P0 and P1. At the one of the outer points, draw another line that is at an angle of 90 degrees from the first line segment. This will cause the new line segment to stand straight on the first segment. Draw another line segment between the not used endpoint of the new line segment, let's call it P2, and the not used endpoint of the first line segment. This will create a triangle. Now on the P2 endpoint, draw another line segment that is again at 90 degrees angle. Repeat the previous steps and you will have created a root spiral.
Two points with a single line connecting them.
Draw any finite line. Write C near one end; write D near the other end. You now have a line segment and have named it CD.
