Question

question 3 / 5 mandi used a compass and straight edge to construct pq, the angle bisector of ∠apc as shown below. in mandis construction, point q is located at the intersection of two arcs centered at which two points? a. point a and point b b. point a and point c c. point b and point d d. point c and point d

Explanation:

Step1: Recall angle - bisector construction

In the construction of an angle bisector of an angle $\angle APC$, first, an arc is drawn from the vertex $P$ that intersects the two rays of the angle at points (say $B$ and $D$). Then, from points $B$ and $D$, arcs of equal radius are drawn inside the angle, and their intersection point is the point on the angle - bisector. Here, point $Q$ is located at the intersection of two arcs centered at the points where the first - drawn arc intersects the rays of the angle, which are points $B$ and $D$.

Answer:

C. Point B and Point D
