Question

4.3 perpendicular bisector theorem
mallory cameron
if a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment.
then __ px = py
pq is the perpendicular bisector of xy
what is the conclusion from the first one?
px = py
rewatch

Explanation:

Step1: Recall perpendicular - bisector theorem

If a point is on the perpendicular bisector of a segment, then it is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment.

Step2: Identify the given

PQ is the perpendicular bisector of XY and P is a point on PQ.

Step3: Apply the theorem

By the perpendicular - bisector theorem, the point P (on the perpendicular bisector PQ of segment XY) is equidistant from X and Y. So PX = PY.

Answer:

PX = PY
