IM G 1.6 Cool Down
Line m is the perpendicular bisector of segment PS. Unfortunately, S got lost. 1. Use straightedge and compass tools to construct a line perpendicular to line m that goes through point P. 2. Mark point S. Explain your reasoning.
Here is a line m and a point P not on the line. Use straightedge and compass tools to construct a line perpendicular to line m that goes through point P.
