Question

A perpendicular bisector intersects a segment at a right angle. Which of the following objects can a perpendicular bisector be? A. Ray, line, or line segment B. Line segment C. Ray D. Line or line segment

Answer 1

The answer is A, because all of those options could be bisectors

Answer 2

Answer with explanation:

    The meaning of Perpendicular Bisector is ,to divide the segment into two equal parts , and angle between given segment and either ray or line or line segment which is used as perpendicular bisector has measure of angle equal to 90°.

A ray has a end point ,and other end goes infinitely in other direction.

A line has no end point in either direction.It goes till infinitely in both direction.

A segment has both ends fixed,does not go till infinity in either direction.

The perpendicular bisector can be any of the following:

 A.⇒ Ray, line, or line segment
