For Exercises 113, do the construction using the figures below. Check your work with a ruler or a protractor.
1. Construct a new segment, AB congruent to XY .
2. Construct the perpendicular bisector of XY .
3. Construct a triangle whose sides are all the same length as XY .
4. Construct a new segment, AB so that AB = MN + OP.
5. Construct a new segment, KL so that KL = OP ! MN. Use the segments from problem 4.
6. Construct a new angle, "A, so that m"A = m"1 + m"2.
7. Construct a new angle, "B, so that m"B = m"1 ! m"2. Use "1 and "2 from problem 6.
8. Construct "C so that m"C = 2m"2. Use "2 from problem 6.
9. Construct a right triangle with two sides that are congruent.
10. Draw a segment.
