Question

State and prove the Perpendicular Bisector Theorem.

The correct answer is: Hence proved.


    Answer:
    • To prove: 
      • Perpendicular Bisector Theorem:

    • Proof: 
    • Statement:
      • According to perpendicular bisector theorem, in the triangle, any point on perpendicular bisector is at equal distance from both end points of the line segment on which it is drawn.
    • Step 1:
    Let consider given figure,


    Let arbitrary point C on perpendicular bisector.
    In which,
    CD is perpendicular bisector on AB.
    Hence,
    AD = DB
    CD = CD (common)
    straight angle ADC equals straight angle BDC equals 90 to the power of ring operator
    So, according to SAS rule
    straight triangle ACE approximately equal to straight triangle ACE
    Hence,
    CA = CB
    So, any point on perpendicular bisector is at equal distance from end points of line segment.
    Hence proved.
