Question

isha constructed ∠xyz and needs to double the angle by constructing a copy of the angle using ray yx as one of the sides of the new angle. he has constructed an arc, as appears in the image. what next step must he take to construct a copy of the angle using ray yx? (1 point) o he must measure the distance between point y and the arc using a compass o he must draw an arc that measures the larger arc by placing the pointed end on point x o he must measure the distance between point y and point z using a compass o he must measure the distance between point x and point z using a compass

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

To construct a copy of an angle, after drawing an arc intersecting the angle's sides (as is done here), the next step is to measure the distance between the two intersection - points of the arc and the angle's sides. In the given $\angle XYZ$, the intersection points are $X$ and $Z$. So, the compass should be used to measure the distance between point $X$ and point $Z$.

Answer:

He must measure the distance between point $X$ and point $Z$ using a compass.
