How is a ruler different from a straightedge?
The straightedge can only be used to draw a straight line, or check to see if a surface is flat, but cannot measure length. A ruler can be used to draw a straight line or check for flatness, and a ruler can also measure length because it has evenly spaced markes denoting inches and centimeters.

How would you draw a perpendicular line?
Using a compass and ruler: # At the point you want the perpendicular line to cross, place a dot. Label it A. # Draw a circle centred at A with a radius of about an inch (two-three centimetres). Label the points it intersects the original line as B and C. # Construct two circles centred at B and C, large enough that they almost reach the other point and have the same size. Label the points they intersect at as D and E. # Draw a straight line between E and D. This line is the perpendicular line. This method can also be used to draw a perpendicular bisector, if the ends of the line you wish to bisect are labelled as points B and C.
How do you draw and label the place value line?
i don't know u tell me
Why is it impossible to draw a line segment using Euclidean geometry?
It is impossible to draw a straight line.
How do you draw line parallel to line mn?
To draw a line parallel to line MN, you can use a straightedge and a pencil. Start by marking a point anywhere on the paper and label it as point A. Then, place the straightedge on point A and line MN, ensuring that the straightedge is parallel to line MN. Next, draw a line extending from point A along the straightedge, and this new line will be parallel to line MN.
How do you draw two parallel lines using only a straightedge and a protractor?
Draw a line. Draw a perpendicular to that line then a perpendicular from that one.
Any object that can be used to draw a straight line?
Are you answering a crossword for geometry? The answer is a straightedge.
The midpoint of a line can be found using either a compass and straightedge construction a straightedge and tracing paper construction?
true honey :)
Can the midpoint of a line be found using either a compass and straightedge construction or a straightedge and tracing paper construction?
True APEX :)
Why is there a need to use a straightedge and compass to construct geometric figures?
The compass is used to measure angles. The straightedge is used to draw a straight line. The two items together, are used to measure and draw angles and lines in geometric drawings.

It is possible to trisect a line segment using only a straightedge and compass?
True
What is the best next step in the construction of an equilateral triangle?
Use a straightedge to draw a line segment from A to one of the points where the two circles intersect.

Is it possible to construct a perpendicular bisector to any given line using only a straightedge and a compass?
Yes
How do you bisect an angle?
Take a compass. Open it so that it is a large enough radius to be easy to draw, but small enough that it still marks on both lines of the angle. Draw an arc that crosses both lines making up the angle, then place the point on each of these intersections and draw two more arcs of the same size so that they intersect. Using a straightedge, draw a line from the point of the angle to the intersection. That is the bisecting line.
