Question

Thuy examines the figure in the image. She needs to determine if NO¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ is a copy of PQ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ . What must she do to show that NO¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ is a constructed copy of PQ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ? (1 point) Responses She must measure the distance from point M to point N using a compass and place the compass on point P to see if point M is the same distance. She must measure the distance from point upper M to point upper N using a compass and place the compass on point upper P to see if point upper M is the same distance. She must measure the distance from point O to point Q using a compass and place the compass on point P to see if point N is the same distance. She must measure the distance from point upper O to point upper Q using a compass and place the compass on point upper P to see if point upper N is the same distance. She must measure the distance from point M to point Q using a compass and place the compass on point M to see if point O is the same distance. She must measure the distance from point upper M to point upper Q using a compass and place the compass on point upper M to see if point upper O is the same distance. She must measure the distance from point N to point O using a compass and place the compass on point P to see if point Q is the same distance.

Answer 1

To determine if \( \overline{NO} \) is a constructed copy of \( \overline{PQ} \), Thuy must compare the lengths of the segments. The correct approach is to measure the distance from point \( O \) to point \( Q \) using a compass and then place the compass on point \( P \) to see if point \( N \) is the same distance.

So the correct response is:

**She must measure the distance from point O to point Q using a compass and place the compass on point P to see if point N is the same distance.**
