Some steps to construct an angle MNT congruent to angle PQR are listed below. Step 3 is not listed. Step 1 - Use a compass to draw an arc from point Q which intersects the side PQ at point A and the side QR at point B. Step 2 - Draw a segment NT and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point N which intersects the segment NT at a point X. Step 3 - Step 4 - Join points N and Y using a straightedge. Which statement describes step 3 correctly?

Adjust the width of the compass to AB and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y. Adjust the width of the compass to AQ and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y. Adjust the width of the compass to BQ and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y. Adjust the width of the compass to NX and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y.

I'm sure it's not the third one.

this is tough without a compass :) What do you think about the first one?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm not sure... It could be the last one.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you think

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm stumped

So that's what it looks like after step 1 and 2 are done.

So, next, I will try to sketch "answer #1" and see what that does for us...
