Consider the line segment PQ to construct the perpendicular bisector. Steps of Construction:
Step 1: Draw a line segment PQ.
Step 2: With P as centre, draw two arcs on either sides of PQ with radius more the half the length of the given line segment.
Step 3: Similarly draw two more arcs with same radius from point Q such that they intersect the previous arcs at R and * respectively.
Step 4: Join the points R and *.
RS is the required perpendicular bisector of the given line segment PQ.
