1. Constructing Bisectors
COURSE 2 LESSON 7-3
Construct the angle bisector of F.
Step 1 Put the tip of the compass at F and draw an arc that intersects the sides of F. The points of intersection are D and E.
Step 2 Using the same compass opening, place the compass tip at D and then at E, and draw intersecting arcs. Point X is where the arcs intersect.
Step 3 Draw FX. FX is the bisector of F.
