Question

Ben uses a compass and a straightedge to construct angle DEF is congruent to angle ABC, as shown.
Which statement best explains why Ben uses the width BI to create the arc JK from point E?

angle DEF is congruent to angle ABC when BH = EK, BI = JK, and HI = EJ.

BI = JK when angle DEF is congruent to angle ABC.

BI = EJ when angle DEF is congruent to angle ABC.

angle DEF is congruent to angle ABC when BH = EJ, BI = EK, and HI = JK.

Answer 1

Answer 2

so we need to find e?

Answer 3

its obviously angle DEF is congruent to angle ABC when BH = EJ, BI = EK, and HI = JK. because these are the same angles, and bh=ej are at the same place, bi and ek are the same etc...

Answer 4

@warningiflirt alright let me review it just a sec
