What is the best next step in the construction of a line that passes through point c and is parallel to ab? (assume that the arc drawn with the compass placed at point a was the result of the last step performed.)

a. using the same compass setting, place the point of the compass at b and draw an arc that intersects ab.

b. change the compass setting, and draw an arc with point of the compass at point a that passes through point b.

c. using the same compass setting, place the point of the compass at c and draw an arc that intersects ab.

d. change the compass setting, and draw an arc with point of the compass at point a that passes through point c.
