arrtu followed the following instructioins:

-draw an angle using a straightedge with vertex point Q. place points P and R at the end of the angle forming segments QP and QR.
-using a compass, draw an arc that inersects both sides of the angle. place two points, a and b , at the intersection of the arc with both sides of the angle.
-placing the pointed end of the compass on point B, draw a smaller arc inside the angle that extends more than halfway across the inside of the angle.
-place point C at the intersection of two smaller arcs and draw a segment from the vertex point Q to point C.

what term best describes segment QC
a. segment bisector
b. angle bisector
c. midpoint
d. an arc

1 answer

The term that best describes segment QC in the context you provided is b. angle bisector.

An angle bisector is a segment that divides an angle into two equal parts, and in this case, segment QC was constructed to achieve that by intersecting the arcs drawn from points A and B.
