Solution

The correct options are
A AP = BP
B AP = BQ
C AOP = BOP
Given
PQ is the perpendicular bisector of AB.
AOP = BOP = 90.

During construction, arcs are dawn on either side of AB with the same radius
AP = AQ
With the same radius and taking B as centre another two arcs are drawn to cut the previous arcs at P , Q .
AP = AQ = BP = BQ (Equal radii)

AP = BP and AP = BQ is also true.
