Construction 4: To construct a line perpendicular to a given line through a given point on the line. Given: Line w and point P on w To construct: A perpendicular to w at P Construction: With P as center and a convenient radius, construct an arc intersecting line w at points B & C. With B and C as centers and equal radii, construct arcs intersecting at D. Draw DP 1 w since it is the 1 bisector of AB. ZAPD = ZBPD by s.s.s. and ZAPD = <BPD by cpctc since they are congruent adjacent supplementary angle they are rt. <s, DP 1 w.
