What is the next step?

Ian is bisecting line segment CD. First, Ian places the compass on endpoint C and opens it to a width larger than half of the segment. Then, Ian swings an arc on both sides of line segment CD. What is the next step?


  1. Draw a point that is not on segment CD. 
  2. Draw a ray from point D of the segment. 
  3. Keep the compass the same width, and place it on the arc intersection. 
  4. Keep the compass the same width, and place it on the other point D.
