Answer 1

To determine the last step Wei did to complete his construction of segment CD as a copy of segment AB, we should consider that the last step in constructing a line segment would typically involve using a straightedge to connect the two endpoints of that segment after measuring its length.

Given the options, the last step must involve constructing a line segment from points C to D, which completes the construction of CD as a copy of AB.

Thus, the best response is:

Using a straightedge, he constructed a line from point C to point D.
