Improved answer as follows:-
First find the mid-point of (-2, 5) and (-8, -3) which is (-5, 1)
Then find the slope or gradient of (-2, 5) and (-8, -5) which is 4/3
The perpendicular slope is the negative reciprocal of 4/3 which is -3/4
So the perpendicular bisector passes through (-5, 1) and has a slope of -3/4
Use y -y1 = m(x -x1)
y -1 = -3/4(x- -5)
y = -3/4x-11/4 which can expressed in the form of 3x+4y+11 = 0
So the equation of the perpendicular bisector is: 3x+4y+11 = 0

There are infinitely many lines perpendicular to this line. All of them have the slope of -4/3, if that fact is of any help to you.
First find the midpoint the slope and the perpendicular slope of the points of (p, q) and (7p, 3q) Midpoint = (7p+p)/2 and (3q+q)/2 = (4p, 2q) Slope = (3q-q)/(7p-p) = 2q/6p = q/3p Slope of the perpendicular is the negative reciprocal of q/3p which is -3p/q From the above information form an equation for the perpendicular bisector using the straight line formula of y-y1 = m(x-x1) y-2q = -3p/q(x-4p) y-2q = -3px/q+12p2/q y = -3px/q+12p2/q+2q Multiply all terms by q and the perpendicular bisector equation can then be expressed in the form of:- 3px+qy-12p2-2q2 = 0
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.
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
First find the mid-point of the line segment which will be the point of intersection of the perpendicular bisector. Then find the slope or gradient of the line segment whose negative reciprocal will be the perpendicular bisector's slope or gradient. Then use y -y1 = m(x -x1) to find the equation of the perpendicular bisector. Mid-point: (7p+p)/2 and (3q+q)/2 = (4p, 2q) Slope or gradient: 3q-q/7p-p = 2q/6p = q/3p Slope of perpendicular bisector: -3p/q Equation: y -2q = -3p/q(x -4p) y = -3px/q+12p2/q+2q Multiply all terms by q to eliminate the fractions: qy = -3px+12p2+2q2 Which can be expressed in the form of: 3px+qy-12p2-2q2 = 0
First find the midpoint of the line segment AB which is: (-2, 3) Then find the slope of AB which is: -5/2 The slope of the perpendicular bisector is the positive reciprocal of -5/2 which is 2/5 Then by using the straight line formula of y-y1 = m(x-x1) form an equation for the perpendicular bisector which works out as:- y-3 = 2/5(x-(-2)) y = 2/5x+4/5+3 y = 2/5x+19/5 => 5y = 2x+19 So the equation for the perpendicular bisector can be expressed in the form of:- 2x-5y+19 = 0

To find the perpendicular line segment from a point to a line by folding paper, first, place the point on one side of the line and the line itself on the opposite side. Fold the paper so that the point aligns directly over the line, ensuring the fold creates a crease that intersects the line at a right angle. The crease represents the perpendicular segment from the point to the line, and its intersection with the line is the foot of the perpendicular. Unfold the paper to reveal the segment clearly.
False... good luck with Apex :)
Yes, I can.
True
False that is to find the perpendicular bisect.
To find the perpendicular bisector of the line segment connecting the points (-1, -6) and (5, -8), we first calculate the midpoint of the segment. The midpoint (M) is given by: [ M = \left( \frac{-1 + 5}{2}, \frac{-6 + (-8)}{2} \right) = \left( 2, -7 \right). ] Next, we find the slope of the line segment, which is [ \text{slope} = \frac{-8 - (-6)}{5 - (-1)} = \frac{-2}{6} = -\frac{1}{3}. ] The slope of the perpendicular bisector is the negative reciprocal, which is 3. Using the point-slope form of a line, the equation of the perpendicular bisector is: [ y + 7 = 3(x - 2). ] This simplifies to: [ y = 3x - 13. ]
