Which construction is illustrated above? Checking Answers I got an angle congruent to a given angle the bisector of an angle -->the bisector of a line segment a perpendicular to a given line from a point on the line

OpenStudy (phi):

see http://www.mathopenref.com/constparallel.html

OpenStudy (phi):

It looks like they constructed a line parallel to the base leg.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So is it the last one? but they are parallel not perpendicular so I dont think it is

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The angles are congruent it seems though

OpenStudy (phi):

A transversal (the left leg) through two parallel lines has corresponding angles that are congruent.

OpenStudy (phi):

so maybe they are constructing parallel lines as a means to construct congruent angles.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yes because the angles are congruent I am going to go with that it seems to be the only logical answer thanks
