Question

Divide a given line segment into four congruent parts. Bisect once and then bisect again the obtained half segments.

Answer 1

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

"Bisect" essentially means to cut in half. Here, since we are bisecting three times, we will have 4 equal pieces.

See the attachment. The red "x" just denote the fact that all 4 segments are the same length x.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Bisect means to divide into 2 parts. The question is asking us to bisect each half line segment till we get 4 congruent parts.

Basically, we are going to have a straight line with 4 parts that are all the same length.
