question
When constructing inscribed polygons and perpendicular lines how are the steps similar?
answer
Intersecting arcs are created and connected.
question
What is the first step when constructing parallel lines?
answer
Draw a line that intersects the given line. (use a straightedge)
question
When constructing parallel lines how can you be sure the lines you constructed are parallel?
answer
Open your compass to the distance between the two lines and check if it is the same all the way down.
question
How do you start the construction of perpendicular lines?
answer
You open your compass and make two arc marks (two points of intersection).
question
When constructing inscribed polygons how can you be sure the figure is a regular polygon?
answer
Use your compass to measure the lengths of the sides. regular -all sides are equal -all angles have the same degree
question
When you construct parallel and perpendicular lines are the steps similar?
answer
Intersecting arcs are made and then connect points.
question
Which step is included in the construction of perpendicular lines using a point on the line?
answer
Place compass on the point within the line and make 2 arc marks on the line. Make arcs above and below the given line.
question
Which step is included in the construction of inscribed polygons?
answer
Draw a circle from a given center with a compass.
