Question 1 • (A. Costello)WCA 5324 Geometry 1st Nine Weeks 26-27

Which statements are correct? Check all that apply.A compass is used to make circles and arcs in geometric constructions.A rough sketch by hand is considered a geometric construction.Geometric constructions are created with a compass and straightedge.Protractors are used in geometric constructions to measure degree measures.Rulers are used in geometric constructions to measure segment lengths.

Answer
A
A compass is used to make circles and arcs in geometric constructions.
B
A rough sketch by hand is considered a geometric construction.
C
Geometric constructions are created with a compass and straightedge.
D
Protractors are used in geometric constructions to measure degree measures.
E
Rulers are used in geometric constructions to measure segment lengths.

Explanation

A compass draws circles and arcs, and geometric constructions are traditionally made using a compass and straightedge. A hand-drawn rough sketch is not a construction, because constructions follow precise geometric steps. Protractors and rulers are used to measure angles and lengths, but measuring is not part of classical geometric construction.
