Which tools are necessary to construct a perpendicular bisector?
A compass and a straight edge
What happens between a radius and a tangent in a circle?
A tangent is always perpendicular to the radius of a circle. A radius is a straight line going from the center of the circle to the circumference (edge) of the circle. A tangent is a straight line outside the circle that touched the circle at one (and only one) point. When a tangent touches the outside edge of the circle at the same point where a radius touches the edge of the circle, the angle between the radius and tangent line is 90 degrees meaning they are perpendicular.
Did the ancient greek require a straightedge and protractor to construct a perpendicular bisector for a given line segment?
Maybe, but a straight edge and a pair of compasses would have probably been used to construct a perpendicular line bisector for a given line segment.
Is an octagon perpendicular?
No . It is not perpendicular
Is a rhombus perpendicular?
No, a rhombus is not perpendicular.
What is a perpendicular edge in fifth grade math?
A perpendicular edge is a side of a plane shape that is at right angles (90 degrees) to another edge.
How many edges are perpendicular from a edge on a cube?
24
What is a bevel edge?
A bevel edge is slanted from the perpendicular, like a board with the corners shaved off.
What area of a triangle does a perpendicular bisector split?
a line that intersects an edge of a triangle that is perpendicular to it and passes through the midpoint
Which tools are necessary to construct a perpendicular bisector?
A compass and a straight edge
Is every edge of a hexagonal prism perpendicular to eight others?
No.No.No.No.
How many perpendicular edges in a cube?
Each of the 12 edges of a cube is directly perpendicular to four others (two at each vertex for that edge).
A lateral edge of a pyramid is always perpendicular to the base?
I have absolutely no idea whatsoever.
What is the definition of 'bevel'?
A bevelled edge refers to an edge of a structure that is not perpendicular to the faces of the piece. Moreover, the words bevel and chamfer overlap in usage.
How can you divide a rectangle into five equal parts?
Divide one edge into five equal parts and construct lines perpendicular to that edge at those points.
Is the shortest point of a distance measured along the perpendicular segments from the point to the line?
No it is measured from the edge
What is the special name for the segment that connects the center of a polygon to an outer edge to form the height of the triangle?
You may be thinking of the perpendicular line because the area of a triangle is 0.5*base*perpendicular height
