The chart below shows the names of all the tools that Valerie used to construct an acute angle.

Tools used
1) Paper
2) Pencil
3) Compass

Which statement best explains why Valerie’s construction may be inaccurate?

A ruler should be used to measure the length of the rays forming the angle.

A protractor should be used to measure the angle that has been constructed.

A straightedge should be used to draw rays to create a copy of an angle.

A string should be used to take approximate measurements of the rays.

rulers and protractors are not allowed in euclid constructions, so that removes first two options
