Amanda is constructing equilateral triangle JKL inscribed in circle M. To construct the inscribed polygon, she is going to use a compass to partition the circle into congruent arcs. To what width should she set the compass when partitioning the circle? A. The width must be equal to the radius of circle M. B. The width must be equal the diameter of circle M. C. The width can be equal to either the radius or the diameter of circle M. D. The width can be any size greater than the radius but less than the diameter of circle M. E. The width must be less than the radius of circle M. help meee please

Given:

An equilateral triangle JKL inscribed in circle M.

Solution:

To draw an equilateral triangle inscribed in circle follow the steps:

1: Draw a circle with any radius.

2. Take any point A, anywhere on the circumference of the circle.

3.  Place the compass on point A, and swing a small arc crossing the circumference of the circle.

Remember the span of the compass should be the same as the radius of the circle.

4. Place the compass at the intersection of the previous arc and the circumference and draw another arc but don't change the span of the compass.

5. Repeat this process until you return to point A.

6. Join the intersecting points on the circle to form the equilateral triangle.

So the correct option is A. The width must be equal to the radius of circle M.
