<span>Let's take a look at the available steps and see what makes sense. "Construct a point at one of the two intersection points of circle E and circle F and label this point G" ** We don't have anything drawn yet, so this step goes later. "Construct EG¯¯¯¯¯ ​ and FG¯¯¯¯¯​" ** Same issue, nothing done yet. But this looks like it would be the last step. "Construct ​ EF¯¯¯¯¯​" ** OK. We can draw a line and label the end points E and F. So make this step 1. "Construct a circle with point E as the center and a circle with point F as the center with each circle having radius EF" ** This looks like it would also work for step 2, since we've already constructed the line segment EF. So the entire process looks like: 1. Construct ​ EF¯¯¯¯¯​ 2. Construct a circle with point E as the center and a circle with point F as the center with each circle having radius EF . 3. Construct a point at one of the two intersection points of circle E and circle F and label this point G. 4. Construct EG¯¯¯¯¯ ​ and FG¯¯¯¯¯​.</span>

Help with Math homework
coldgirl [10]

You were doing everything correctly! Keep in mind that a straight line is 180 degrees and a triangle has 180 degrees, because I see that some of your questions involve lines.

also remember vertical angles! If you have any specific question, I would be happy to help!
