Answer:
Place compass at P and, with compass set to segment AB, draw an arc that intersects line PA ⇒ 2nd answer
Step-by-step explanation:
"I have added screenshot of the complete question as well as the
diagram"
* Lets revise how to construct a parallel line to a given line
1. Using your straightedge, draw a transversal through point P
This is simply a straight line which passes through P and intersects
with the given line
2. Using the construction COPY AN ANGLE, construct a copy of the
angle formed by the transversal and the given line such that the
vertex of the copied angle will be point P
3. Draw an arc centered at A and intersecting the given line and the
transversal at B and C.
4. Draw an arc of the same distance centered at P intersecting the
transversal at C'
5. Use the compass to measure the distance from B to C, and
with the compass centered at C' scribe an arc whose radius is
the distance from B to C intersecting the arc from Step 4 at B'.
6. Draw the line from P through B' which is the parallel line to the
given line
* Now lets solve the problem
- The next step in constructing a line parallel to a given line is
Place compass at P and, with compass set to segment AB, draw
an arc that intersects line PA.
