She constructed a segment LN congruent to side PR. She then measured side QR with a ruler and constructed a segment of the same length above and towards the right side of segment LN from point N. What error did Sandy make in this step?

Answer 1

Drawing the segment from point N instead of R.

Drawing a segment with a ruler instead of an arc with the compass.

Drawing the segment towards the left of segment LN intead of towards the right.

Drawing a segment above segment LN instead of marking a point M.


I think C?

Answer 2

I think it's B. usually in construction the way I learnt it, I wasn't allowed to use a ruler directly. I always had to use my compass.

Answer 3

even if it was possible to do it with a ruler.

Answer 4

its b

Thank you!
