Bisector means any line which divides the line segment is two equal parts. In this case the Perpendicular bisector will be straight in upward or downward direction from the middle of the line segment. Any line segment can have only one mid point. Hence any line segment can have only one Perpendicular bisector. Hence correct answer is B that is 1.
