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).

thank goodness for my math teacher, norm! he said only in an isosceles triangle. The bisector of the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle is perpendicular to the base! =)
A perpendicular bisector is a straight line that divides a side of a triangle in two and is at right angles to that side. An angle bisector is a straight line that divides an angle of a triangle in two.
Angle Bisector Definition: An angle is formed by two rays with a common endpoint. The angle bisector is a ray or line segment that bisects the angle, creating two congruent angles. To construct an angle bisector you need a compass and straightedge. Bisectors are very important in identifying corresponding parts of similar triangles and in solving proofs.
Bisector means a line that divides another lines in two equal halves.
An angle bisector of a 90-degree angle is a line or ray that divides the 90-degree angle into two equal angles of 45 degrees each. It is a line that passes through the vertex of the angle and divides it into two congruent angles. In a right triangle, the angle bisector of the right angle will also bisect the opposite side, creating two smaller right triangles.
