The correct order is given below

Explanation:

The steps for inscribing equilateral triangle in a circle

1. First step

Copy the radius r to make a chord on the circumference of the circle A.

2. Second step

Copy the chord of length r a second time.

3. Third step

Connect the two chord endpoints to subtend a 120° arc.

4. Fourth step

Copy the cord two times to make the sides of the triangle.

Answer 2

Answer with step-by-step explanation:

1. First step:

Copy the radius r to make a chord on the circumference of the circle A.

(Copying the radius will make us keep each side of the same length).

2. Second step:

Copy the chord two times to make the sides of the triangle.

(Copying the chord twice so that we can make the equal sides of the triangle)

3. Third step:

Connect the two chord endpoints to subtend a 120-degree arc.

(We will connect the endpoints of these chords to make a triangle)

4. Fourth step:

Copy the chord of length r a second time.

(This will be the last step)
