Perpendicular Bisector of a given line segment is a line that divides it into two equal parts and forms an angle of 90 degrees at the intersection point.

Step-by-step explanation:

To construct a perpendicular of a given line segment AB = 9 cms.

1. Draw the line segment with a ruler of 9cms.

2. Using a compass, keeping the centre point as A draw an arc at a distance above/below the line segment that is more than half of the line segment. (More than 4.5cms in this case.)

3. Now repeat step 2, only changing the centre point to B.

4. Name the point of intersection of the drawn arcs as C and D.

5. Connect the points C-D using a ruler.

6. The line CD is the perpendicular bisector of the line segment AB.

The point at which the line CD intersects the line segment AB is the mid-point of the line segment. The line CD makes an angle of 90 Degrees at this point of intersection.
