P. 214
Use the straight edge to draw line AP. Line AP is perpendicular to
5.
line k.
Given an angle, how would you construct the bisector of that angle?
Let point P be the vertex of the given angle. Place the compass on
1. point P and draw an arc across both sides of the angle. Label the
intersection points Q and R.
Place compass on point Q, measure distance QR, and from the point Q
2.
using that distance draw an arc on the interior of the angle QPR.
Without changing the radius of the compass, place it on point R and
3. draw an arc intersecting the one drawn in the previous step. Label the
intersection point W.
4. Using the straight edge, draw ray PW. This is the bisector of QPR.
Given a line segment, how would you construct an equilateral triangle with sides congruent to the given line
segment?
