Constructing Perpendicular Lines Solution
Construct a perpendicular line through point A. Prove that the lines are perpendicular.
Perpendicular Lines from a Point Steps
1. Create Point A using the 
tool
2. Create a line through point A using the 
tool
3. Create Point C on line A using the tool
4. Create a Compass with the a radius of AC using the 
tool.
5. Label the new point D.
6. Create 2 equal compasses with a radius of CD with the tool. 1 compass has a center at C and the other at D.
7. Name the points of intersection above and below the line E and F.
8. Create a point at the intersection of CD and EF.
9. Use the 
tool to show the measure of right angle to prove the lines perpendicular.
