Question

Natalie is completing construction of an equilateral triangle inscribed in a circle, as shown below. What should be the next step in her construction?
B
O Construct a line perpendicular to the line AB to create four congruent quadrants.
O Construct six equal sections around the circle using the original radius as a guide.
O Construct another point C anywhere on the circle to be the third vertex of her triangle.
O Draw arcs above and below line AB to show where the triangle sides meet.
Z

Answer 1

The next step she should take is to draw arcs above and or below line AB to show where the triangles sides meet.

Steps in construction of an equilateral triangle

The steps involved in the construction of an a equilateral triangle are:

• Place the compass point on A and measure the distance to point B
• Swing an arc of this size above or below of the segment.
• Do not change the span on the compass
• Then place the compass point on B and swing the same arc, intersecting with the first arc
• Label the point of intersection as the third vertex of the equilateral triangle.

Thus, the next step she should take is to draw arcs above and or below line AB to show where the triangles sides meet.
