Answer 1

For all perpendicular bisectors, the following properties are true:

1. **Form a 90 degree angle with a segment** - True: A perpendicular bisector intersects a segment at a right angle (90 degrees).

2. **Cut a segment into three equal parts** - False: A perpendicular bisector divides the segment into two equal parts, not three.

3. **Split a segment in two equal segments** - True: A perpendicular bisector divides the segment into two equal lengths.

4. **Cut an angle into half** - False: A perpendicular bisector does not bisect angles; it bisects the segment.

Therefore, the correct properties are:
- Form a 90 degree angle with a segment
- Split a segment in two equal segments
