Construct the perpendicular bisector for the segment in the following figure. What process did you use? Explain.

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular bisector is a line that cuts a line segment connecting two points exactly in half at a 90 degree angle.

To find the perpendicular bisector of two points, all you need to do is find their midpoint and negative reciprocal, and plug these answers into the equation for a line in slope-intercept form.

If you want to know how to find the perpendicular bisector of two points, just follow these steps

midpoint = (X₁ + X₂    ,   Y₁ + Y₂ )

compare the two slopes in the decimal form. if the slopes are equal, then the lines are parallel. if the slopes are not equal, then the lines are not parallel.
