4: Construct a Perpendicular Bisector

Construct an Angle Bisector
Given [math]\overline{AB}[/math][br]Construct: The perpendicular bisector of [math]\overline{AB}[/math][br][br]General notes: [br][list][*]Draw an arc = use compass[/*][*]With the same radius = use compass[/*][*]If lines or curves intersect = use intersect tool to label that point[/*][/list]Procedure: [br]1. Open your textbook to page 380. Follow the directions for construction 4. Your point will be named differently (C and D instead of X and Y); that's okay. [br]2. Finished? use the angle measure tool to confirm that you have constructed perpendicular segments. Use the distance or length tool to confirm that you have created a segment bisector.[br][br][u]Remember[/u]: [br][list][*][color=#ff0000]Given info: red[/color][/*][*][color=#6aa84f]Arcs utilized in construction: green[/color][/*][*][color=#0000ff]The final construction: blue[/color][br][/*][/list]
