Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark

Explanation of Solution

Given Information:A line l with a point P on it.

Construction:

The following steps are to be followed for constructing a line perpendicular to the given line at a given point.

a) Construct a line l of some definite length (say 5 cm) and mark point P arbitrarily as shown below.

  McDougal Littell Jurgensen Geometry: Student Edition Geometry, Chapter 10.2, Problem 1WE , additional homework tip  1

b) Now, using a compass, with P as center and any radius within the length of the line, draw arcs on both sides of the point. The points are marked as A and B .
