Leeanne is using a compass and straight edge to construct the perpendicular bisector of QR. She has used a compass to draw two arcs centered at Q and R, all with the same radii. Her work is shown. Explain the error(s) Leeanne has made in her construction. H R She didn't make her radii of the arcs large enough to intersect. She should have drawn a perpendicular line at the midpoint of QR using her protractor. She should have drawn each radii from the midpoint of segment QR. Her radii are too large.
