Answer 1

What should denise do for her next step?

Answer: Out of all the options presented above the one that best represents the next step that denise should take after already using her straightedge and compass to construct the circle, lines, and arcs is to use the straightedge to draw line ac, line ad, line bc, and line bd. use the compass and straightedge to construct the bisector of ∠cpb∠cpb.
