Questions: Construct angle D so that m angle D = 2 m angle C.
C
D. With the compass point on C, draw an arc that intersects the sides of angle C. Label these points of intersection A and B.
What is the third step of the construction?
A. Open the compass to length AB and put the compass point on D. Draw a large arc (at least twice the measure of angle C ) and label its point of intersection with the construction in the first step as R.
B. Open the compass to length AB and put the compass point on C. Draw a large arc (at least twice the measure of angle C ) and label its point of intersection with the construction in the first step as R.
C. With the same compass setting, put the compass point on C. Draw a large arc (at least twice the measure of angle C ) and label its point of intersection with the construction in the first step as R.
D. With the same compass setting, put the compass point on D. Draw a large arc (at least twice the measure of angle C ) and label its point of intersection with the construction in the first step as R.

Solution
Solution Steps
Step 1: Draw an arc intersecting the sides of ∠C
With the compass point on C, draw an arc that intersects the sides of ∠C. Label these points of intersection A and B.
Step 2: Open the compass to length AB
Open the compass to the length AB and put the compass point on D.
Step 3: Draw a large arc from point D
With the same compass setting, put the compass point on D. Draw a large arc (at least twice the measure of ∠C) and label its point of intersection with the construction in the first step as R.
Final Answer
The third step of the construction is:
D. With the same compass setting, put the compass point on D. Draw a large arc (at least twice the measure of ∠C) and label its point of intersection with the construction in the first step as R.
