Use the drop-down menus to complete the additional steps needed to finish the congruent triangle construction.

Answers:
Place the compass center at C and set the radius to the length of CB. Because , he needs to set the compass radius only once.:CB = CA
Keeping the compass width the same, move the compass center to F and draw arcs to intersect segments .:FD and FG
The points where the arcs intersect the segments are the of the triangle. Construct segments to form the remaining sides of the triangle.:vertices

Place the compass center on P and adjust the radius of the compass to the length of PQ.
C
Place the compass center on Q and draw an arc that intersects PQ and QR.
D
Place the compass center on U and adjust the radius of the compass to the length of SU.
E
Place the compass center on P and draw an arc that intersects PQ and PR.

What is the next step in the construction?

A
Place the compass center on H and draw a long arc that starts above and intersects IH.
B
Place the compass center on G and adjust the radius to the length of GF.
C
Without changing the compass width, move the compass center to I and draw an arc intersecting IH.
D
Without changing the compass width, move the compass center to E and draw an arc intersecting EC.

Jack began constructing ΔDEF to be congruent to ΔABC by copying side AC to form DF. Could Jack use ASA to complete the construction? If so, which two angles should he copy?

A
Yes, he should copy ∠A and ∠B.
B
Yes, he should copy ∠B and ∠C.
C
Yes, he should copy ∠A and ∠C.
D
No, after constructing DF, Jack must copy another side from ΔABC.
