well it really easy a perpendicular line has 90 degrees in and it looks like an L shape so if you want to measure the COMPASS you go

QtoU=Yso180degrees

What are perpendicular bisectors?

A line that is perpendicular to the segment of a plane and passes through the midpoint.


How many perpendicular bisectors can a line segment have?

Only one.


Does a rectangle have perpendicular bisectors?

Yes, a rectangle has perpendicular bisectors for each of its sides. The perpendicular bisector of a side is a line that divides that side into two equal lengths at a right angle. Additionally, the diagonals of the rectangle also serve as perpendicular bisectors of each other, intersecting at the rectangle's center.


What do you call to a line of symmetry of an isosceles triangle?

There is no specific name. It is one of the medians, angle bisectors and perpendicular bisectors: one set of these is coincident and is the line of symmetry.


How many perpendicular bisectors can be constructed for a line segment?

Exactly one. No more, no less.


Where do Perpendicular bisectors intersect?

At a perfect right angle adjacent to the line and exactly half way along the line.


How can you use perpendicular and angle bisectors to form a 45 degree angle?

You draw a perpendicular at the end of a line segment. You then bisect the right angle formed between the original line and the perpendicular. The resulting angle will be 45 degrees.


How many perpindicuar bisectors can a line segment have?

Since there is no such word as "perpindicuar", it is difficult to be sure. A line segment can have only one perpendicular bisector.


Are the angle bisectors of a regular polygon sometimes concurrent?

The angle bisectors of a regular polygon are always concurrent. And the point that they meet at is also the meeting point of the perpendicular bisectors of the sides. If it is a polygon with an odd nmber of sides, the "medians" [line from vertex to mid-point of opposite side] and "altitudes" [perpendicular from vertex to opposite side] will also meet at the same point.


How many lines in a plane could be perpendicular bisectors of a segment?

In a plane, there are infinitely many lines that can serve as perpendicular bisectors of a given segment. The unique perpendicular bisector of a segment is a specific line that divides the segment into two equal parts at a right angle. However, any line parallel to this unique bisector, at any distance, can also be considered a perpendicular bisector if it intersects the segment at its midpoint. Thus, while the unique perpendicular bisector exists, an infinite number of lines can be drawn parallel to it.


Can perpendicular bisectors have a vertex as an endpoint?

When one draws an isosceles triangle and cast a line straight down from the top, It will result to a perpendicular bisector of the bottom leg. This will only work with an isosceles triangle.


Which step is included in the construction of perpendicular lines using a point on the line?

To construct perpendicular lines using a point on the line, first, place the compass point on the given point and draw an arc that intersects the line at two points. Next, keeping the same compass width, place the compass on each of these intersection points and draw two arcs above and below the line, creating intersecting arcs. Finally, draw a line through the point and the intersection of the arcs, which will be perpendicular to the original line.
