Assume the segment AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
has already been constructed. To construct the perpendicular bisector of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
, first put the compass on point A and draw a long arc. Be sure the opening is greater than half of the length of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
. What is the next step that should be taken?(1 point)

With the same compass setting, put the compass point on point B and draw another long arc. Label the points where the arcs intersect AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
as X and Y.
With the same compass setting, put the compass point on point B and draw another long arc. Label the points where the arcs intersect line segment cap A cap b as X and Y.
With the same compass setting, put the compass point on point B and draw another long arc. Label the points where the two arcs intersect each other as X and Y.

With the same compass setting, put the compass point on the intersection of AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
and the previous arc. Draw another long arc and label the points where the two arcs intersect AB¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
as X and Y.
With the same compass setting, put the compass point on the intersection of line segment cap A cap b and the previous arc. Draw another long arc and label the points where the two arcs intersect line segment cap A cap b as X and Y.
