AB ⊥ CD

Line segment CD is the perpendicular bisector of line segment AB.

Assume the conjecture that the set of points equidistant from  and  is the perpendicular bisector of  is true. Is point  closer to point , closer to point , or the same distance between the points? Explain how you know.

Starting with 2 marked points, A and B, precisely describe the straightedge and compass moves required to construct the triangle ABC in this diagram.

This diagram was created by starting with points C and D and using only straightedge and compass to construct the rest

All steps of the construction are visible. Select all the steps needed to produce this diagram.
