Constructing Parallel Lines
Construction Steps
Follow these steps to construct parallel lines
1) Using the POINT TOOL, mark point G anywhere on segment FB (Hint: FG must be shorter than FE)
2) Using the COMPASS TOOL, create a circle with radius FG and center point F
3) Using the POINT TOOL, mark point H at the intersection of circle F and segment FE
4) Using the COMPASS TOOL, create a circle with radius FG and center point E
5) Using the POINT TOOL, mark point I at the intersection of circle E and segment EC
6) Using the COMPASS TOOL, create a circle with radius GH and center point I
7) Using the SEGMENT TOOL, draw a segment from E to the intersection of circles E and I
