Geometric Construction Perpendicular Line through given point

Follow these steps to complete your construction. 1) Construct a circle using the "Circle with Center through Point" tool by clicking on C, then clicking on point D on the line. 2) Construct a point at the second intersection of the circle and the line. (It should be E) 3) Construct a circle using the "Compass" tool with radius CD and center D. 4) Construct a circle using the "Compass" tool with radius CE and Center E. 5) Construct a point at the lower intersection of the two circles you constructed in steps 3 & 4. (Call this point F) 6) Construct a line that passes through C and F.
