Let us say the line segment is AB. Then take a compass and spread it so that the distance between the needle around which the compass rotates and the pencil at the other end is a little over half the length of AB. Place the needle of the compass on A and draw small arcs above and below the line AB. Without altering anything on the compass, place the needle on B and draw small arcs as before above and below the line AB such that these arcs intersect the older arcs. Now join the two intersection points of the arcs and call this line CD. CD is the right bisector of AB

What is A line segment that forms a right angle with another segment at its midpoint is a?
It is a perpendicular bisector line
What divides a segment or angle into 2 equal parts?
A segment bisector or angle bisector. A bisector can be a line, line segment, or ray.
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 a line that is perpendicular to the line segment intersecting the line segment at its midpoint?
perpendicular bisector
What is a line that cuts a segment in half?
A line that cuts a segment in half is a bisector
What is right bisector in math?
A right bisector of a line segment, is better know as a perpendicular bisector. It is a line that divides the original line in half and is perpendicular to it (makes a right angle).
What is A line segment that forms a right angle with another segment at its midpoint is a?
It is a perpendicular bisector line
What divides a segment or angle into 2 equal parts?
A segment bisector or angle bisector. A bisector can be a line, line segment, or ray.
A line segment that forms a right angle with another segment at its midpoint is a?
Perpendicular Bisector
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 difference between a perpendicular bisector and a angle bisector?
A perpendicular bisector is a line that divides a given line segment into halves, and is perpendicular to the line segment. An angle bisector is a line that bisects a given angle.
What is the name of a line that forms a right angle with another segment at its midpoint?
It is a perpendicular bisector line
What is a segment bisector?
I line that intersects a segment at its midpoint.
What is a perpendicular bisector of a line segment?
The perpendicular bisector of a line segment AB is the straight line perpendicular to AB through the midpoint of AB.
What is the difference between a perpendicular line and a perpendicular bisector?
A perpendicular line is one that is at right angle to another - usually to a horizontal line. A perpendicular bisector is a line which is perpendicular to the line segment joining two identified points and which divides that segment in two.
A segment line or plane that intersects a segment at its midpoint?
A Segment Bisector
What is a line that is perpendicular to the line segment intersecting the line segment at its midpoint?
perpendicular bisector
