To bisect AB , make an arc above and below AB with the compass at A (using A as center) and opened

more than halfway (with radius 12mAB> ):

A   B  

Do the same thing using B as center, using the same radius as the previous step. The intersections of the arcs will be on the perpendicular bisector. Draw a line segment, ray, or line on the line that connects the two points of intersection, and you have bisected AB :

CD bisects AB .

First draw a ray or line and pick a point to call B´:

Then draw an arc using B as the center and draw that same arc from B´:
