Question

What is the best next step in the construction of an equilateral triangle?

Answer 1

Answer with explanation:

Given a circle having center A, and radius equal to AB.

One side of equilateral Triangle = AB

We have to draw two sides which have length equal to AB.

Draw a circle having center B and radius equal to AB.The Circle will pass through center A and cuts the Original circle at P.Join AP and BP.This is the equilateral triangle that we are interested in.

The Next in the construction of an equilateral triangle is:

Option B:→ Use a Compass to draw a circle centered at B with a radius that is equal to AB.

Answer 2

option B

Explanation:

Use a compass to draw a circle centered at B with a radius that is length of AB.

then draw a circle centered at A with a radius that is length of AB

join the point of intersection of two circles through straight lines to point A and point B.
