Using a compass, measure the distance from point Q
to point B
. Then, make another arc by placing the pointed end of the compass on point Q
and draw a small arc that intersects with the larger arc above point P
.
Using a compass, measure the distance from point upper Q to point upper B . Then, make another arc by placing the pointed end of the compass on point upper Q and draw a small arc that intersects with the larger arc above point upper P .
Using a compass, measure the length from point B
to point C
. Then, make another arc by placing the pointed end of the compass on point Q
and draw a small arc that intersects with the larger arc above point P

The correct response for constructing a copy of angle ∠BAC using the provided construction steps is:
Using a compass, measure the distance from point Q to point B. Then, make another arc by placing the pointed end of the compass on point Q and draw a small arc that intersects with the larger arc above point P.
This response accurately describes the steps to replicate the angle using a compass based on the initial points provided in the diagram.
