Copy of Perpendicular Through a Point on a Line

Explore the construction of a perpendicular line through a point on a line.
Summarize the properties and construction of perpendicular lines, points, and circles.[br][br][u]Hint[/u]: If you are not familiar with the steps necessary for constructing a perpendicular line through a point on that line, you might want to explore the applet below. Just use the buttons of the [i]Navigation[/i][i] Bar[/i] in order to replay the construction steps.
Task:
[size=100]Construct a perpendicular line to line AB through point C by following the construction steps provided below.[/size]
