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

It is a perpendicular bisector line
A segment bisector or angle bisector. A bisector can be a line, line segment, or ray.
The bisector and the line segment are perpendicular to each other.
perpendicular bisector
A line that cuts a segment in half is a bisector
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).

Perpendicular Bisector
The bisector and the line segment are perpendicular to each other.
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.
It is a perpendicular bisector line
I line that intersects a segment at its midpoint.
The perpendicular bisector of a line segment AB is the straight line perpendicular to AB through the midpoint of AB.
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.
