Marsha is using a straightedge and compass to do the construction shown. Which best describes the construction Marsha is doing?

a line through P parallel to line l

a line through P intersecting line l

a line through P congruent to line l

a line through P perpendicular to line l

Eric was attempting to construct a perpendicular bisector to the segment AB with a compass and straight edge. Which of the below statements explains what Eric may have done wrong?

Erick just needed to open the compass more to create arcs that have a radius of more than half the length of the segment AB.

Eric should have started by putting the compass needle point at the midpoint of the segment AB.

On the second step, Eric should have placed the compass needle point where the first arc intersected the segment AB.

Erick didn’t do anything wrong he just needs to connect the opposite endpoints of each arc to finish the construction.

Janice is attempting to construct the angle bisector of angle JKL. Her first step is shown. What would be the next step?

She would need to open the compass so that the compass needle point is at the intersection point A and the pencil end of the compass is at intersection point B.

Create another arc with the same radius as the first but placing the compass needle point at point L.

She would need to first open the compass so that the compass needle point is at the point K and the pencil end of the compass is at intersection point A.

She would need to use a straight edge and draw a line through point L and point A. She would also need to draw line through point B and point J.
