Final answer:

The result of constructing a perpendicular bisector of PQ is two segments, each 30 cm long.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are given that a perpendicular bisector of PQ is constructed. The length of PQ is 60 cm.

A perpendicular bisector cuts a line segment into two equal halves and creates two segments that are perpendicular to the original line.

Therefore, the result of constructing a perpendicular bisector of PQ is two segments, each 30 cm long.
