Respuesta :

In an equilateral triangle, are sides and all angles are equal.

All of the angles inside the triangle are equal to 60° each.

What we have to do is construct arcs in the circle with a length of 60° from 0, to ensure that the triangle we construct will have angles of 60°.

That is represented in the option

"construct exactly 6 congruent arcs on circle 0 with length of 0a "

Because if we construct 6 congruent arcs each one will measure:

[tex]\frac{360}{6}=60[/tex]

60°, which is what we need for the equilateral triangle

Since each angle has a measure of 60°, we can take the triangle with length OA and draw an equilateral triangle

Answer: construct exactly 6 congruent arcs on circle 0 with length of 0a
