To determine the last step Wei took to complete the construction of CD as a copy of AB, we need to consider the logical sequence of the construction steps.

  1. Measure Length AB: This step involves using a compass to measure the length of segment AB.
  2. Transfer Length to Point C: Next, he would use the compass to set this measured length and transfer it to point C, marking point D.
  3. Construct Line CD: Finally, he would use a straightedge to draw a line connecting point C to point D.

Therefore, the last step that Wei did to complete his construction was:

Using a straightedge, he constructed a line from point C to point D.
