Check understanding

  • Construct the perpendicular bisector of a line segment using compasses and a straight edge
  • Construct an angle bisector and verify by measuring both halves
  • Construct a perpendicular from a point to a line using compasses only
“If your child has only a ruler and a pair of compasses, can they construct a line that cuts another line segment exactly in half at a right angle — without using a protractor?”
