Final answer:
To construct a copy of segment TU or RS using a compass and straightedge, place the compass at one endpoint, draw an arc, then draw a line connecting the arc to the other endpoint. Option D is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
To construct a copy of segment TU or RS using a compass and straightedge, we will use the method of copying a line segment. Here are the steps:
Place the compass at point T and adjust its width so that it crosses segment TU.
Without changing the compass width, draw an arc that cuts the line at two points. Label these points as A and B.
Place the compass at point A and draw an arc that cuts the previous arc at point C.
Draw a line connecting point C to point U. This line, labeled as CU, is a copy of segment TU.
Therefore, the construction copy of segment TU or RS using a compass and straightedge is Segment SR.
