A perpendicular line or segment that bisects one side of a triangle is called the?
Perpendicular bisector.
Describe two ways to construct a segment that is perpendicular to a given segment?
There are two ways to construct a segment. One way is drawing the perpendicular bisector, the second is with a ruler.
IT is possible to construct a perpendicular bisector to any given line segment using only a straightedge and a compass?
Ture
Is it possible to construct a perpendicular bisector to any given line segment using only a straightedge a compass?
yes
Is it possible to construct perpendicular bisector to any given line segment using only straightedge and a compass?
Yes

Perpendicular bisector.
What must be true about a perpendicular bisector and the segment it bisects?
It bisects the line segment at midpoint at 90 degrees and its slope is the reciprocal of the line segment's slope plus or minus.

Yes it is.
What is the difference between and angle bisector and a perpendicular bisector?
An angle bisector bisects an angle. A perpendicular bisector bisects a side.
What if you repeat the perpendicular line segment construction twice using paper folding you can construct?
You can construct a parallel to a line through a point not on the line. (perpendicular line segment)
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.
