Question

Which sentence states a property or a definition used in the construction of a perpendicular bisector? A line that intersects a line segment at an angle of 90° is parallel to the line segment. A line that bisects a line segment is necessarily perpendicular to the line segment. Any two points equidistant from the midpoint of a line segment lie on its perpendicular bisector. Any point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from each endpoint of the line segment.

Answer 1

The correct statement is:

A line that bisects a line segment is necessarily perpendicular to the line segment.

Explanation:

Perpendicular bisector--

A perpendicular bisector is a line segment that is perpendicular to the given line i.e. it intersects the line at an angle of 90° and it also bisects the given line at a point ( i.e. it divides the given line into two equal parts )
