Answer:
The figure represents the construction of a :
a congruent line segment.
Explanation:
The steps for the construction of a congruent line segment is given by:
1. Draw a line AB on the piece of paper.
2. Take a measurement on a compass more than halfway AB and keep the needle of the compass on A and draw an arc above and below AB.
3. Next put the needle of the compass on B and draw the arc that intersects the previous arcs.
4. Name the intersected point above AB as C and below AB as D.
5. Connect the point C to Point D.
6. The lien segment meets AB at some point let it denote by E.
7. Hence, we get line segment AE is congruent to line segment EB.
