Melvin has a line segment on his paper.

He wants to construct a line segment bisector using the paper folding method.
He has forgotten the steps to complete this construction. Help him by putting the following steps into the correct order.
Option #1: Use a straight edge to draw a line through the point you have created.
Option #2: Fold one endpoint of the line segment onto the other.
Option #3: Unfold the paper and label the intersection of the fold and the line segment with a point.

To construct a line segment bisector using the paper folding method, the steps should be ordered as follows:

  1. The first step is Option #2: Fold one endpoint of the line segment onto the other.
  2. The second step is Option #3: Unfold the paper and label the intersection of the fold and the line segment with a point.
  3. The third step is Option #1: Use a straight edge to draw a line through the point you have created.

So, the final ordered steps are:

  1. Option #2
  2. Option #3
  3. Option #1
