A perpendicular bisector of a line segment is a line segment perpendicular to and passing through the midpoint of (left figure). The perpendicular bisector of a line segment can be constructed using a compass by drawing circles centered at and with radius and connecting their two intersections.

A perpendicular bisector is a special kind of segment, ray, or line that. (1) intersects a given segment at a 90° angle, and. (2) passes through the given segment's midpoint. Segment CD is the perpendicular bisector to segment AB. We derive two important theorems from the characteristics of perpendicular bisectors.
