A student wants to construct a perpendicular bisector of a line segment. The student sets a compass length to create two circles with centers the endpoints of the line segment. What is the students' mistake?

• The student should have made the circles smaller.

• The student should have made one circle larger than the other.

• The student should have set the compass wider so that the circles have the same diameter and intersect at two points.

• The student should have made two circles with different diameters and both centered on the same endpoint.
