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
.​ 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?

CD¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
Modifying above upper C upper D with bar

CR←→
Modifying above upper C upper R with two-way arrow

QR←→
Modifying above upper Q upper R with two-way arrow

DR←→

Answer 1

In this scenario, Lexi folded her paper so that point C was on top of point D, creating a fold line that would be the angle bisector of segment CD. The point where the fold intersects segment CD is labeled E, indicating that it divides the segment into two equal parts.

Since the fold (which intersects segment CD at point E) acts as a segment bisector, the line segment or line that serves as the segment bisector in this scenario is:

**CD¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯**

So the correct response is:

**CD¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯**
