The length of a perpendicular segment from a point to a line is the shortest distance between that point and the line. This length can be calculated using the formula given the coordinates of the point and the line's equation. Specifically, if the line is represented in the form Ax + By + C = 0, and the point's coordinates are (x₀, y₀), the length can be found using the formula: ( \text{Distance} = \frac{|Ax₀ + By₀ + C|}{\sqrt{A^2 + B^2}} ). This distance is always positive and represents the minimum separation between the point and the line.
The length of a line segment that starts at the point and is perpendicular to the original line.
. . . is the segment perpendicular to the line.

The distance will be length of the line divided by 2 because the perpendicular bisector cuts through the line at its centre and at right angles
the length of a perpendicular segment from the point to the line
That is correct. The distance from a point C to a line AB is the length of the perpendicular segment drawn from point C to line AB. This forms a right angle, creating a right triangle with the segment as the hypotenuse. The length of this perpendicular segment is the shortest distance from the point to the line.
