Segment AB is given, and a ray starts at C. The compass is set to AB, and an arc centered at C crosses the ray at D. What result has been made?

To copy segment PQ onto a ray with endpoint R, the compass opening is first set to PQ. What is the next compass step?

The figure shows segment MN and a ray from point T. To copy MN onto the ray, a student sets the compass to the distance MT instead of MN, swings an arc centered at T, and marks point U where it crosses the ray. Which statement is true?

A construction must make KL congruent to XY on a ray starting at K. Before drawing the transfer arc, what compass opening is needed?

A copy of segment UV is being made from point W on a ray. An arc centered at W meets the ray at X after the compass opening was set to UV. What segment is the copy?

Segment EF is given, and ray GH starts at G. The compass point is on E and the pencil is on F to set the opening. Without changing it, where should the compass point go next?

To copy angle ABC onto a ray with endpoint E, an arc centered at B crosses BA at P and BC at Q. A matching arc is drawn from E. What distance is copied onto the new arc?

To copy angle ABC onto a ray with endpoint E, matching arcs have been drawn from B and E. The distance between the original arc intersections locates F on the new arc. What comes next?

To copy angle RST onto a ray with endpoint E, an arc is struck from vertex S. Why must the arc struck from E use the same radius?

A student copying angle DEF uses the distance from E to one arc intersection instead of the distance between the two arc intersections. What part is not correctly copied?

To begin copying angle XYZ onto a new ray with endpoint A, which first arc should be drawn on the original angle?

Angle ABC has been copied onto the horizontal ray from E. Let D be a point on that ray. Point F was found on the new arc, and ray EF is drawn. What result is made?

Equal-radius arcs are drawn from endpoints A and B of segment AB. The arcs meet above and below the segment at P and Q. What straightedge step completes the bisection?

In a segment-bisector construction, arcs from A and B meet at P and Q. Why must the arcs from A and B use equal radii?

Equal-radius arcs from A and B meet at P and Q, and line PQ crosses AB at M. What is point M?

A student draws equal arcs from A and B, but the arcs meet only at P above segment AB. What is missing before the bisector line can be drawn?

To bisect segment CD with compass arcs from C and D, what compass opening should be used?

Equal arcs from endpoints E and F intersect at R and S, and line RS crosses EF at M. If EF is 18 units, what is EM?

In angle ABC, an arc centered at B crosses BA at D and BC at E. Equal arcs from D and E meet at F inside the angle. Which ray completes the bisection?

To bisect angle DEF, what first compass step creates two points the same distance from vertex E?

An arc centered at K marks G and H on sides of angle JKL. Equal arcs from G and H meet at M. What fact supports ray KM as the angle bisector?

Ray KM is drawn after equal arcs from G and H meet inside angle JKL. What result does this construction make?

A student bisects angle ABC but draws segment DE connecting the first arc's side-intersection points. What step should replace segment DE?

An arc centered at Q marks S on QP and T on QR, equal arcs from S and T meet at U, and ray QU is drawn. If angle PQR measures 76 degrees, what does angle PQU measure?
