Question

Marcello is constructing the perpendicular bisector of AB¯¯¯¯¯. He has already constructed arcs as shown.

Answer 1

Answer: "Use the straightedge to draw a line through points X and Y." is the right answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

To perpendicular bisector of line segment AB. There are following steps:

1) Draw arcs from points A and B on the both sides of AB.

2) Name the intersection points as X and Y.

3) Use the straightedge to draw a line through points X and Y.

4) Name the point as O

hence we have construct perpendicular bisector XY of AB which bisects at O.
