Use the image to answer the question.
Two points, upper T and upper P mark either end of a line segment slanting up from the left to the right. A third point, upper W, is plotted below the line segment.
Jouri constructed PT¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
using a compass and straightedge. She then placed point W
so that it was not on the segment she just constructed, as shown in the image. What is the next step Jouri must take to construct a copy of PT¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
using point W
as one of her endpoints?
Option #1: Using a compass, measure the distance between point P
and point W
.
Option #2: Using a compass, measure the distance between point T
and point W
.
Option #3: Using a compass, measure the distance between point T
and point P
.
(1 point)
The next step Jouri needs to take is Option #
.
