Put the following steps in order to construct the angle bisector of <PQR Adjust the compass to a medium setting and draw an arc across each leg of the angle Place the compass point on the angle's vertex Q Using a straightedge, draw a line from the vertex to the point where the arcs cross Place the compass on the point where one arc crosses a leg and draw an arc in the interior of the angle. Without changing the compass setting repeat for the other leg so that the two arcs cross.

30. The steps to construct the interior point of ∠CAB for the angle bisector are given. Which step is not valid? 1. With one point of the compass on A, draw an arc that intersects both sides of the angle at B and C. 2. Place the compass on B and draw an arc. 3. Open the compass wider and place it on point C and draw an arc. 4. Draw a ray through point A and the intersection of the arcs drawn in steps B and C.
