Jay is copying an angle. His work so far is shown below. Explain the importance of his next step, which is placing the point of the compass on L, opening the compass to N, and drawing an arc. A. This ensures that when he draws another arc for angle Y, that it will be the right distance from point Z. <-- MY ANSWER

B. This arc is to make sure that both L and N are equidistant from M.

C. This arc makes sure that the distance from L to N is the same as the distance from Y to Z.

D. This way there will be two arcs drawn on both angles when he is done.
