Find the coordinates of the point Q on the X- axis which lies on the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points A (-5,-2) and B (4,-2). Name the type of triangle formed by the points Q , A and B.

Explanation

To find the coordinates of the point Q on the X-axis which lies on the perpendicular bisector of the line segment joining the points A (-5, -2) and B (4, -2), we will follow these steps:

### Step 1: Find the Midpoint of Line Segment AB
The midpoint \( C \) of the line segment joining points \( A(x_1, y_1) \) and \( B(x_2, y_2) \) can be calculated using the formula:
\[ C\left( \frac{x_1 + x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1 + y_2}{2} \right) \]
For points \( A(-5, -2) \) and \( B(4, -2) \):
