there is ur transversal...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what did you start with?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. u start with line AB and point P. do u have the line and the point?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you had a line and a dot to start with?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes. alright. so next ur going to take ur compass and open it to about half way through line AP

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do u have to have a compass?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes u do
