A segment is a chunk (segment) of memory that is 64Kb in size. Due to the design of the 8086/8088 there are 64K possible segments, ecah overlapping the next by 16 bytes, for a total addressibility of 1 Mb.
In the instruction model, a segment is the locus of addresses that can be reached in one instruction, without stopping to load a new value into a segment register. It is also called a near, or 16 bit address.

What theorem is used to prove a segment is a bisector?
A segment need not be a bisector. No theorem can be used to prove something that may not be true!
What is a line segment used for?
A line segment is often used in math to do geometry and other types of math. This is a part of a line which can be calculated and measured correctly in an equation.
What is the midpoint formula used for?
The midpoint formula is used to find the point that is in the middle of a segment.
Which type of construction is used to construct a triangle's point of balance?
Segment bisector
How do you make square root spiral by paper folding and paper cutting?
First of all draw a line segment that is about 2 cm long between two points P0 and P1. At the one of the outer points, draw another line that is at an angle of 90 degrees from the first line segment. This will cause the new line segment to stand straight on the first segment. Draw another line segment between the not used endpoint of the new line segment, let's call it P2, and the not used endpoint of the first line segment. This will create a triangle. Now on the P2 endpoint, draw another line segment that is again at 90 degrees angle. Repeat the previous steps and you will have created a root spiral.
What are the different types of segment register?
The code segment (CS) register is used for access to program code. The data segment (DS) register is used for access to data. The extra segment (ES) register is used for access to data during certain string primitive operations. The stack segment (SS) register is used for access to stack data.Any of these implied uses can be overridden with a segment override prefix opcode.
What theorem is used to prove a segment is a bisector?
A segment need not be a bisector. No theorem can be used to prove something that may not be true!
When constructing a congruent segment a straight edge is used to measure the length of the segment?
False
Which segment is used to store interrupt and subroutine return address registers?
stack segment
What type of bridge would be used to conncet an ehernet segment with a token ring segment?
A gateway.
Which layer 1 device can be used to enlarge the area covered by single LAN segment?
hub is the device that is used to extend the lan segment and used at layer1 that is physical layer.

hub is the device that is used to extend the lan segment and used at layer1 that is physical layer.
Difference between code segment and data segment of an instruction?
In the 8086/8088 microprocessor, the code segment is used to fetch the opcode and any additional instruction bytes that might be part of the instruction, while the data segment is used to fetch and/or store any operand bytes that the instruction requires to be manipulated.This is in the case of no segment override prefix.
Can bridges be used by administrators to segment their LAN?
This is one of the reasons for using a bridge - it supplies LAN segment isolation by not forwarding packets it knows will be delivered in the same segment.

Instrument used to measure a line segment?
it would be a ruler
