Answer 1

When a ruler measuring 1 foot (which is equivalent to 12 inches) is bisected, it is divided into two equal segments.

To find the length of each segment, you divide the total length by 2:

\[ \text{Length of each segment} = \frac{12 \text{ inches}}{2} = 6 \text{ inches} \]

Thus, each segment of the bisected ruler is 6 inches long.
