Answer:

Copying a line segment or angle is an illustration of transformation. Both are similar, because they are both rigid transformation.

When an angle is copied to a new angle, the new angle and the old angle will have the same measure

Similarly;

When a line segment is copied to a new segment, the new line segment and the old line segment will have the same measure

This type of transformation is referred to as a rigid transformation.

Hence, copying a line segment is similar to copying an angle, because they are both rigid transformations
