When constructing parallel and perpendicular lines, how are the steps similar? A) Intersecting arcs are created and connected. B) A protractor and ruler are used to take accurate measurements. C) Four right angles are created. D) There are no similarities.

Livxxx:

Which answer choice could you eliminate first?

XxUchiha17xX:

C.

XxUchiha17xX:

And A.

Livxxx:

I wouldn't eliminate A

XxUchiha17xX:

Oh. I thought you could eliminate A because parallel lines don't intersect.

XxUchiha17xX:

So that wouldn't be similar for both of them.

Livxxx:

Ok that does make sense

XxUchiha17xX:

So do you think B then, maybe?

XxUchiha17xX:

C is eliminated because parallel lines can't make a right angle because they're not connected.

XxUchiha17xX:

And with these types of questions, the answer usually isn't the one that says "none" or whatever, like D does.

Livxxx:

Ok so B is the answer

XxUchiha17xX:

Ight, thank you.
