please answer the question

Order the steps for constructing a copy of ∠A from 1–5.


Acute angle A.

Mark a point X. Use a straightedge to draw a ray with endpoint X. returned to choices list.

  1. Place the compass point at A. Draw an arc that intersects both rays of angle A. Label the points of intersection B and C.
  2. Place the compass point at C, and open the compass to the distance between B and C.
  3. Without changing the setting, place the compass point at Y and draw an arc. Label the point Z where the two arcs intersect. Use a straightedge to draw ray XZ.
  4. Mark a point X. Use a straightedge to draw a ray with endpoint X.
  5. Without changing the setting, place the compass point at X and draw an arc intersecting the ray. Mark the point Y at the intersection.
