Question

drag each tile to the correct box.
the given steps for constructing a line tangent to circle o that is tangent to the circle at point p on the circle are listed out of order. arrange the steps in the correct sequence.
a. without changing the compass width, place the compass on r and make another arc, intersecting the first, and label the intersection s.
b. draw a line through p and s.
c. with the compass on p, draw an arc on each side of p. label the intersections q and r.
d. draw a straight line from the center, o, through p and extending past p.
e. with the compass on q, set its width to a setting greater than pq. make an arc outside the circle.

Explanation:

Step1: Draw radius through P

Draw line from O through P.

Step2: Mark arcs on radius

Compass at P, mark Q, R on line OP.

Step3: Arc from Q outside circle

Compass at Q, width > PQ, draw arc.

Step4: Arc from R intersect first arc

Compass at R, same width, mark S.

Step5: Draw tangent line PS

Connect points P and S.

Answer:

D → C → E → A → B
