Geometric Construction
8 Draw an Arc Through Three Points
- Establish three random points. (Under normal conditions, these points will not be random.)
- Draw two lines to connect the points.
- Bisect the two lines and create perpendicular lines.
- Where the two perpendicular lines cross becomes the radius point for the arc.
- Set your compass from the established radius point to one of the three points.
- Swing the arc through the points.
