Answer:

Perpendicular bisector

Explanation:

Construction done:

1). An arc is drawn from point O which intersects line 'l' at two points C and D.

2). From the points C and D two equal arcs on both the sides of the line 'l' have been drawn intersecting each other at points P and Q.

3). Points P and Q have been joined with the help of a straightedge.

Hence constructed line PQ is the PERPENDICULAR BISECTOR of the line segment CD.
