Answer 1

To determine the type of construction being done based on the provided steps, we generally refer to common geometric constructions. Here’s a brief overview of what each option might involve:

1. **Parallel lines through a point not on the given line**: This construction typically involves drawing a line parallel to an existing line passing through an external point.

2. **Perpendicular lines**: This usually involves drawing a line that intersects another line at a right angle (90 degrees).

3. **Angle bisector**: This construction involves dividing an angle into two equal angles, typically done by using a compass and straightedge.

4. **Perpendicular bisector**: This construction creates a line that is perpendicular to a given segment and bisects it, meaning it cuts it into two equal lengths.

Without the images to visualize the steps you've mentioned (Step 1, Step 2, Step 3, Step 4), it's hard to determine definitively which construction type is being illustrated. However, if the steps involve intersecting lines at right angles, it’s likely "perpendicular lines." If they focus on dividing an angle, it would be "angle bisector." If they involve bisecting a segment at a right angle, it would be "perpendicular bisector."

Please provide details or descriptions of the steps, and I'd be glad to help you more accurately!
