Question

Leo is constructing a tangent line from point Q to circle P. What is his next step?

Mark the point of intersection S of the segment created from the arcs and circle R, and construct line RS.

Mark the point of intersection S of circles R and P, and construct line QS.

Construct arcs from point Q that are greater than half the length of segment PQ.

Construct a circle from point P that has a radius of P and the intersection of circles P and R.

Answer 1

Mark the point of intersection S of circles R and P, and construct line QS.

Explanation:

This is correct because after you create circle R that intersects circle p, you're supposed to mark the intersection points. If your in FLVS, it would be in lesson 7.04. I also got this right on my test. Good luck!

Answer 2

hello your question has a missing diagram attached below is the missing diagram

answer :

Mark the point of intersection S of circles R and P, and construct line QS ( option 2 )

Explanation:

when constructing a tangent line from one point ( lets say Q as seen in the question ) to a circle P. The next step should be to mark a point of intersection between the given circles and then construct a line through it
