Question

1-6 basic constructions
by the end of this video you should be able to:
● see how to use a compass and straight edge
● use a compass and straight edge to:

• construct a congruent segment
• construct a congruent angle
• construct a perpendicular bisector of a segment
• bisect an angle

geometry standards
g.1.2: construct congruent segments and angles, angle bisectors, and parallel and perpendicular lines using a straight edge and compass, explaining and justifying the process used.

1. select 2 that apply:

there are 2 tools that are used for construction in geometry. they are...
rular - used for measuring and drawing straight line segments.
straightedge - only used to draw straight line segments.
protractor - used to measure the degree of an angle and to draw angles.
compass - used to

Explanation:

In geometric construction, a straight - edge is used to draw straight line segments and a compass is used to create circles or arcs which are essential for constructing congruent segments, angles, bisectors etc. A ruler is not a pure geometric construction tool as it has measurement markings and a protractor is for angle - measuring and drawing angles rather than core geometric construction like the other two.

Answer:

Straightedge - Only used to draw straight line segments, Compass - Used to create circles or arcs for geometric construction.
