Answer 1

Our goal here is to create a copy of line segment PQ, through various steps. Let's start with drawing line segment PQ, respectively point R a fixed distance away from the segment.

It would be wise to use a compass in this case, and a ruler for certain.

So we have this segment PQ, and point R a " fixed distance " away from PQ.

( 1. Extend a compass to match with the length of PQ,

( 2. Move this compass ( without changing it's length ) so that one endpoint matches with point R

( 3. Now draw an arc with this compass, where this line will be

( 4. Take your ruler and draw a straight line from this point R to your arc. It would be wise to draw this line to the middle of the arc you created.
