Question

if a point is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment, then it is: a. on the perpendicular bisector of the segment. b. the midpoint of the segment. c. on the segment. d. on the angle bisector of the segment.

Explanation:

The definition states that any point which is equidistant from the endpoints of a segment lies on the perpendicular bisector of that segment. A mid - point is a special case of a point on the perpendicular bisector but not all points on the perpendicular bisector are mid - points. A point on the segment or angle bisector of the segment does not satisfy the equidistant condition.

Answer:

A. on the perpendicular bisector of the segment.
