Answer:

D

Explanation:

The following steps describes the correct order of steps for constructinf an angle bisector of angle DEF.

(1). Draw a circle with a radius less then the arms of angle.

(2). Draw a line from point of intersections of arc (circle) and arms of the angle.

(3). Draw two circles with radius = distance between point of intersection of circle and arms of angle, center taken as point of intersection of circle and arms. than draw an equilateral triangle.

(4). Use a straightedge to connect the vertex of angle and the right most vertex of the equilateral triangle.

Hence option D is correct.
