Best Answer

a line that cuts through parallel lines so that each angle created has a measure of 90degrees

No. That is a transversal.

A perpendicular bisector [for a given line segment] is a line that meets it at 90 degrees and divides it into two halves.
It is 2 lines that intersect each other at 90 degrees
