• A. Bisector
• B. Angle bisector
• C. Perpendicular bisector
• D. (a) and (c) above.

Answer 1

The correct option is C Perpendicular bisector

Line passing through mid point of a line segment and forms right angle with the line segment is known as perpendicular bisector.

For example: $\text{AB}$ is a line segment having $\text{S}$ as mid point. Line passing through $\text{S}$ and making right angle is the perpendicular bisector of $\text{AB}.$
