Question

Part A: Draw a line that passes through points A and B. Then draw a line through point that is perpendicular to AB. Label the intersection of the perpendicular line and AB as point D. Take a screenshot of your construction, save it, and insert the image in the space below.

Answer 1

To draw a line perpendicular to a given line passing through a point, find the midpoint of the line segment and draw a line through the midpoint that is perpendicular to the given line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

Draw a line passing through points A and B.

Step 2:

To draw a line perpendicular to AB, first find the midpoint of AB. Then, draw a line passing through the midpoint and perpendicular to AB.

Step 3:

Label the intersection point of the perpendicular line and AB as point D.
