In which of the following figures (Fig. 2.35),
(a) perpendicular bisector is shown?
(b) bisector is shown?
(c) only bisector is shown?
(d) only perpendicular is shown?
A bisector is a line which bisects a given line segment into two equal parts. If this bisector is perpendicular to the given line segment, then it is known as perpendicular bisector.
(a) Figure (ii) represents a perpendicular bisector.
(b) Figures (ii) and (iii) represents bisectors.
(c) Figure (iii) represents only bisector.
