Question

In the diagram below RS is the perpendicular bisector of PQ which of the following statements must be true ? (R is at the top it got cut off)

Answer 1

For a perpendicular bisector

There are two rules.

1) It is perpendicular to the segment so it makes an angle of 90°

2) It divides the segment in two equal parts or it passes through the midpoint of the segment.

As RS is the perpendicular bisector of PQ.

So T is the midpoint

m<PTR = 90° is true

T is the midpoint of PQ is true.

RS is the perpendicular bisector of PQ is false

RS ⊥ PQ is true

RT = ST is false

PT = QT is true

A, B, D & F are true.

Answer 2

The answers are A,B,D,F
