Question

The steps below show the construction of a perpendicular line, at a point O on the segment AB. Which statement describes the missing step 2?

Set the compass width greater than AO and find a point P by drawing arcs from A and B.

Keep the compass width greater than AO and draw an arc, then decrease the compass width to draw another arc from B.

Keep the compass width less than AO and draw an arc from A, then increase the compass width to draw another arc from B.

Set the compass width equal to AO and find a point P by intersecting the arcs drawn from O and B
