Question

On a piece of paper, construct the initials of your first and last name using a compass and straightedge. Only parallel and perpendicular lines may be used in the construction, and both types of constructions must be demonstrated in your finished product. Do not erase arc markings made during the construction process as these help your instructor determine if the lines are constructed properly. Here is an example of a finished product for Zachary Quinto

Answer 1
