Question
Which of these is not a characteristic of a perpendicular bisector?A.forms a right angleB.is a line segmentC.intersects at least one midpointD.is parallel
Solution
D. is parallel
This is not a characteristic of a perpendicular bisector. A perpendicular bisector of a line segment is a line which cuts the line segment into two equal parts at 90 degrees. Therefore, it cannot be parallel to the line segment it bisects.
