Select the correct answer.
Jenna attempted to construct equilateral triangle EFG inscribed in circle C.
First, she used a compass to draw circle C and labeled its center. Next, she used a straightedge to draw a diameter of the circle. She labeled the
endpoints of the diameter D and E. Then, keeping the
compass set equal to the radius of circle C, she drew an arc centered at point E, which
intersected the circle at two points that she labeled F and G.
Finally, she used a straightedge to draw three chords connecting points E, F, and
G.
What was the first error Jenna made in her construction?
OA. When Jenna labeled the diameter, she should have named the endpoints F and G.
OB. When Jenna drew the arc centered at point E, she should have changed the width of the compass to be less than the radius length.
O c. When Jenna drew the arc that intersected circle C, she should have used point D as the center of the arc.
O D.
OE
When Jenna labeled F and G, she should have only labeled F and then drawn a second arc centered at point D to find G.
When Jenna drew the arc centered at point E, she should have changed the width of the compass to be greater than the radius length
