Some steps to construct an angle MNT congruent to angle PQR are listed below.

Step 1: Use a compass to draw an arc from point Q that intersects the side PQ at point A and the side QR at point B.
Step 2: Draw a segment NT, and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point N that intersects the segment NT at a point X.
Step 3:
Step 4: Join points N and Y using a straightedge.

Which statement describes step 3 correctly?

Adjust the width of the compass to AB, and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y.
Adjust the width of the compass to AQ, and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y.
Adjust the width of the compass to BQ, and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y.
Adjust the width of the compass to NX, and draw an arc from point X such that it intersects the arc drawn from N in a point Y.
