Now out of these points, steps 5 and 6 are the main steps that ensure that the copied line segment is exactly the same as the original segment.
The steps to copy a line segment are given below:
1. Let's start with a line segment AB that we have to copy.
2. Now mark a point C. Below or above AB, which will be one endpoint of the new line segment.
3. Now, put the compass tip on point A of the line segment AB.
4. Spread the compass up to point B, so that the compass width is equal to the length of AB.
5. Without changing the compass width, now place the compass tip on point C that you made in step 2.
6. Now, draw an arc roughly without changing the compass settings. Mark that point D. This will form the new line segment.
7. Draw a line from C to D.
Now out of these points, steps 5 and 6 are the main steps that ensure that the copied line segment is exactly the same as the original segment.
