Answer:

C)DECAB

Explanation:

Given is the figure which shows the steps to construct a perpendicular bisector of a segment.

For construction first we draw line AB, then with more than half of AB draw arc from A both above and below the line.

Next from B draw arcs with similar radii above and below the line.

Join the two points of intersection of arcs to get perpendicular bisector

Hence DECAB is the order.
