To construct a copy of the angle â XYZ and double it using ray YX as one side of the new angle, after Isha has already drawn an arc that intersects the sides of the angle, the correct next step would be:
He must draw an arc that intersects the larger arc by placing the pointed end on point X.
This step will help determine where the new angle will be formed in relation to ray YX, effectively doubling the original angle â XYZ.
