Question
Lexi started with CD on her paper. She folded her paper so that point C' was on top of point D. Then, she unfolded her paper and labeled the intersection of the fold and the line segment with point E.
δΈͺ
She used a straight edge to draw QR at an arbitrary angle through point E. Finally,
she drew CR through points C' and R and DR through points D and R.
Which line segment or line is the segment bisector in this scenario?

In this scenario, when Lexi folded her paper so that point C' was on top of point D, the fold creates a line of symmetry. Point E, where the fold intersects the line segment CD, will be on the segment that divides CD into two equal parts.
When she draws line QR through point E, she's creating a line that intersects CD at that midpoint.
In this context, the segment bisector is the line that divides the segment into two equal lengths. The line segment or line that acts as the bisector here is **O CD**, since CD is being divided at point E.
Therefore, the correct answer is **O CD**.
