Question

What is the correct order of steps for constructing a congruent line segment named XY.

Answer 1

III, II, IV, I

Explanation:

One way to look at this is as an ordering problem.

You can't put the compass point at X until you have drawn point X. (III comes before IV -- eliminates A and C)

You can't label the intersection point until you have drawn the arc. (IV comes before I -- eliminates D)

The only reasonable ordering is that shown in B: III, II, IV, I.
