B) s < p < m < n
C) n < m < s < p
D) p < s < n < m
E) s < p < n < m
Keep the same compass opening, place the compass point on B, and draw a circle.
Shorten the compass opening, place the compass point on B, and draw two arcs that intersect the circle.
Keep the same compass opening, place the compass at the midpoint of the segment, and draw a circle.
Widen the compass opening, place the compass point on B, and draw a circle.
To construct an equilateral triangle, Ted should maintain the same compass opening and draw another circle from point B. The intersection point of these two circles will form the third point of the equilateral triangle.
To construct an equilateral triangle, the correct next step for Ted, after drawing a circle with compass point on A and reaching B, would be to keep the same compass opening, place the compass point now on point B, and draw another circle. Where this second circle intersects with the first one, that will be the third point of the equilateral triangle.
This is because in an equilateral triangle, all the sides are of the same length. So, keeping the compass opening the same ensures that the distance from A to B is equal to the distance from B to the new point, and hence you get an equilateral triangle.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Keep the same compass opening, place the compass point on B, and draw a circle.
Answer:
79
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangles are similar, the sides that are the same length have angles that are the same size at the top.
