Answer:

The true statement is 2(MB) = AB

Explanation:

The given figure shows how to bisect a segment

∵ CD is the perpendicular bisector of AB

→ That means CD is perpendicular to AB and intersect it at its mid-point

CD ⊥ AB

∵ CD intersects AB at point M

Point M is the mid-point of AB

∵ M is the mid-point of AB

AM = MB

→ That means each part is half AB

AM = MB =
(1)/(2) AB

∵ MB =
(1)/(2) AB

→ Multiply both sides by 2

∴ 2(MB) = AB

The true statement is 2(MB) = AB
