Question
- order the construction diagrams below to correctly show how to copy an angle.
Step1: Start with given angle
We begin with the original angle $\angle BAC$ and a ray $\overrightarrow{PQ}$. Diagram B shows this starting - point.
Step2: Draw an arc on the given angle
Using a compass, draw an arc that intersects the two rays of $\angle BAC$ at points $D$ and $E$. Diagram C shows this step.
Step3: Transfer the arc to the new ray
Without changing the compass width, place the compass on point $P$ of $\overrightarrow{PQ}$ and draw an arc that intersects $\overrightarrow{PQ}$ at point $F$. Diagram D shows this.
Step4: Measure the arc length on the given angle
Set the compass to the length between points $D$ and $E$. Diagram A shows the compass set to this length.
Step5: Mark the new angle
With the compass set to the length $DE$, place the compass on point $F$ and draw an arc that intersects the previously - drawn arc at point $G$. Diagram F shows this.
Step6: Draw the new angle
Draw a ray $\overrightarrow{PR}$ through point $G$. Diagram E shows the completed copied angle $\angle QPR$.
