To determine if line segment NO is a constructed copy of line segment PQ, Thuy needs to check if the lengths of both segments are equal.
The best approach is as follows:
**She must measure the distance from point P to point Q using a compass and then transfer that distance to point N by placing the compass on point N to check if point O is that same distance away.**
However, since this specific option is not listed, we should focus on the relevant option that reflects this process:
**The correct option from your list is: "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."**
In the context given, "point M" seems to refer to the position on segment NO, and thus would be less suitable than using P directly. To clarify, you would typically check if the segment NO is equal to PQ by measuring PQ and verifying that the same distance from a fixed point gives you point O.
If none of the provided options accurately reflect this method, please clarify any further specifications or requirements for measuring. The essential point is ensuring the lengths of the segments are equal through measurement.
