Question

When constructing an equilateral triangle,

what step comes after six arcs are created on the circle?


a) Connect every other intersection of an arc and the circle with a segment.

b) Connect the intersections of the diameters and the circle with a segment.

c) Connect every intersection of an arc and the circle with a segment.

d) Connect the intersections of the perpendicular bisector and the circle with a segment.

Answer 1

Connect every other intersection of an arc and the circle with a segment.

Explanation:

Cause i had the same question and this is the correct answer.

Answer 2

Connect the intersections of the diameters and the circle with a segment

Explanation:

Assuming the construction creates two orthogonal diameters, their ends will be the vertices of the inscribed square. Connecting them with segments in order around the circle will create the square.
