Arttu followed the following instructions: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 intersects 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 A , draw a smaller arc inside the angle that extends more than halfway across the inside 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 the two smaller arcs and draw a segment from the vertex point Q to point C .What term best describes segment QC¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ?
