When constructing inscribed polygons and perpendicular lines, how are the steps similar?
A.Four right angles are created.
B. A protractor and ruler are used to take accurate measurements.
C.Intersecting arcs are created and connected.
D.There are no similarities.


Which step is included in the construction of inscribed polygons?

A. Measure the diameter of the circle with a straightedge.
B. Connect two arcs together with a compass.
C. Measure the length of each side with a straightedge.
D. Create a circle from a given center with a compass.

Respuesta :

Answer : 1. (C) is the right answer "Intersecting arcs are created and connected".

2. (D) is the right answer "Create a circle from a given center with a compass".

For example to create inscribed square .

Step1) Create a circle from a given center O with a compass.

Step2) Draw a diagonal passing through O and marked as AB on the circle.

Step3) Put compass at A then draw arcs above and below O. Similarly draw arcs from B intersecting arc formed by A.

Step4) Create a line across both the point of intersection by using a straightedge and intersects the circle at C above and t D below center O.

Step5) Join all the four points on the circle which would become the vertices of the square ACBD.
