Gerald is constructing a line parallel to line l through point P. He begins by drawing line m through points P and Q. He then draws a circle centered at Q, which intersects line l at point N and line m at point S. Keeping the compass measure, he draws a congruent circle centered at point P, which intersects line m at point T.Which next step will create point R, such that when a line is drawn through points P and R, the line will be parallel to line l?

Question illustration
U
Use the compass to construct a circle centered at Q through point P.
U
Using the compass measure between points S and N, draw an arc to the right of line m, centered at T, intersecting the edge of circle P.
U
Using the compass measure between points S and N, draw an arc above line l, centered at N, intersecting the edge of circle Q.
U
Use the compass to construct a circle centered at P through point Q.

Y
Yes, because the lines will intersect.
N
No, because the lines are in the same plane.
