Question

which line segment is a perpendicular bisector?

Explanation:

Step1: Recall the definition of a perpendicular bisector

A perpendicular bisector of a line segment is a line segment that is perpendicular to the given line segment and divides it into two equal parts.

Step2: Check the given line segments

In the figure, for line segment \(RU\):

  • It is perpendicular to \(RV\) (as indicated by the right - angle symbol).
  • Also, \(RW = 61\) and \(WV=61\), so \(RU\) bisects \(RV\) (since \(RW = WV\)).

Answer:

\(RU\)
