When an angle is bisected, it would be divided into two equal degrees. Comparing the images, the correct bisector is that in Image A.

There required explanations are given below:

Bisection is a process by which a given segment (or an angle) is divided into two equal parts (or angles).

Considering the two images given in the question, the angle bisector construction that follows the appropriate steps is Image A.

The bisector should divide the angle into equal parts. Thus it should pass along the middle value of the given angle.

The angle bisector that was constructed wrongly or incorrectly is that in Image B. The bisector is not pass along the middle of the given angle.

The step of the bisector that was completed incorrectly were:

With the vertex of the angle and any radius, draw an internal arc to the sides. This step would ensure that the bisector would be placed appropriately.
