Objective : To construct a perpendicular bisector of a line segment using paper folding
Procedure : Make a line segment on a paper by folding it and name it as PQ. Fold PQ in such a way that P falls on Q and thereby creating a creas RS. This line RS is the perpendicular bisector of PQ.

Objective : To find the mid - point of a line segment using paper folding Procedure : make a line segment on a paper by folding it and name it PQ. Fold the line segment PQ in such a way that P falls on Q and mark the point of intersection of the line segment and crease formed by folding the paper as M. M is the midpoint of PQ.

Objective : To construct a perpendicular to a line segment from as external point using paper folding. Procedure : Draw a line segment AB and mark an external point P. Move B along BA till the fold passes through P and crease it along that line. The crease thus formed is the perpendicular to AB through the external point P.
