Construction du milieu d'un segment. Elle se fait en construisant l'axe de la symétrie qui transforme l'extrémité A du segment AB en B. On trace deux cercles de centre A et B de rayon égal, le rayon étant choisi plus grand que la moitié de la longueur du segment AB. Ils se coupent en deux points S1 et S2 de l'axe de symétrie. La droite s passant par S1 et S2 coupe AB en son milieu et est perpendiculaire à AB; elle est appelée la médiatrice de AB. 5, record 1, French, - milieu
