What does parallel lines bisected by a transversal line mean?
There are three lines in the figure described. Two of the lines never meet, these are the parallel lines. The third line crosses the other lines, it is the "transversal" line. If the parallel lines are really line SEGMENTS then each can be bisected (cut into two equal lengths) This is what your description states.
Why does the compass width have to be longer than half when bisecting a segment?
So that the arcs constructed are at midpoint of the line segment to be bisected.
Which kind of angle is formed when this angle is bisected?
That will depend entirely on the angle bisected which has not been given.
What quadrilateral has only one diagonal that is bisected?
Any quadrilateral that is not a parallelogram can have only one diagonal that is bisected by the other.
If a 100 degree angle is bisected and then each new angles is bisected what is the measure of the smallest angle formed?
25 degrees
How do you bisect a line using a protractor?
A line cannot be bisected since it is of infinite length. A line segment can be bisected, but I don't see a protractor as being the best tool for that. You may have meant angle instead of line (?)
In the statement If a line is bisected then it is cut into two equal parts The hypothesis is If a line is bisected and the conclusion is then it is cut into two equal parts?
False. "If" and "then" are NOT included in the hypothesis and conclusion... (:
What is a bisected line segment?
A line segment that has been cut exactly in half
Could a parallelogram have a line of symmetry?
Yes; if a parallelogram is bisected into two equal parts by any line, that line is the line of symmetry.
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.

What is the scientific name for middle?
A line is bisected at the mid-point anatomical middle is usually abdomen
What does it mean if a segment or angle is bisected by a line?
It means it is split in half right down the middle.
Is it true that every angle has a bisector?
Whether or not the line bisecting it has been drawn, it's true that every angle can be bisected.
Why does the compass width have to be longer than half when bisecting a segment?
So that the arcs constructed are at midpoint of the line segment to be bisected.
Do rectangles form equal halves when bisected?
Yes. They have equal halves when bisected.
