I extracted the center point of a line segment, I need to offset this point from its original position on the line to a 10m distance from the line and should be perpendicular to the line
Offset the center point of the segment perpendicular to the segment

@nielsgerrits added and subsequently removed a reaction mentioning the Labeller. This seems to be a viable alternative, as long as the sign of the Label Offset is set depending on the direction of the line. The resulting coordinates are exactly the same as in my math solution described above. Kudos to @nielsgerrits!
