Carla drew two arcs of the same radius by placing her compass at each endpoint of $$\overline{AB}$$ to produce the picture below. If she connects the two points where the arcs intersect with a straightedge, what must be true about the segment she creates?

It is perpendicular to and bisects $$\overline{AB}$$ .

It is congruent to and perpendicular to $$\overline{AB}$$ .

It is congruent to and bisects $$\overline{AB}$$ .

It is congruent to, perpendicular to, and bisects $$\overline{AB}$$ .

What is the next step in constructing an angle RTS congruent to the given angle BCD with a straightedge and a compass?

Without changing the compasses' width, place the point of the compass on point T and draw an arc there. Label the point where the arc intersects $$\overrightarrow{TS}$$ .

Set the compasses on Y and adjust its width to point X.

Using T as the center and any radius, draw an arc which intersects $$\overrightarrow{TS}$$ . Label the point where the arc intersects $$\overrightarrow{TS}$$ .

Below are the steps for constructing the bisector of a segment using paper folding, but one step is missing. Which statement represents the missing step? I. Draw a segment and name it PQ. II. ____________________________. III. Label the intersection of PQ and the fold point M. Any bisector of PQ will pass through point M.

Fold the paper so that point P coincides with point Q.

Fold points P and Q together so they meet as closely as possible at the center of the segment.

Fold the paper so that the crease created coincides with PQ.

Fold the paper so that point P lies perpendicular to point Q.

The diagram below shows the construction of the center of the circle circumscribed about △ABC. This construction represents how to find the intersection of

the perpendicular bisectors of the sides of △ABC

the medians to the sides of △ABC

the altitudes to the sides of △ABC

Alex needs to bisect $$\angle ABC$$ using a compass and straightedge. He starts by performing the following steps. Step 1: Place the compass on vertex B of the angle. Step 2: Draw an arc that intersects both sides of the angle. Step 3: Label these intersections as point D and point E. Step 4: ________________________________. Step 5: ________________________________. What are the next two steps Alex should take in his construction?

Step 4: Place the compass at point D and draw an arc in the interior of the angle. Step 5: Without adjusting the compass width, place the compass at point E and draw an arc in the interior of the angle that crosses the other arc.

Step 4: Adjust the compass width to be half the distance between point B and point E, and then place the compass on point E and draw an arc in the interior of the angle that crosses the other arc. Step 5: Place the compass at point D and draw an arc in the interior of the angle.

Step 4: Adjust the compass width to be half the distance between point B and point E, and then place the compass on point E and draw an arc on the exterior of the angle. Step 5: Without adjusting the compass width, place the compass at point D and draw an arc on the exterior of the angle that is opposite the other arc.

Step 4: Without adjusting the compass width, place the compass at point D and draw an arc on the exterior of the angle that is opposite the other arc. Step 5: Adjust the compass width to be half the distance between point B and point E, and then place the compass on point E and draw an arc in the interior of the angle that crosses the other arc.
