STEPS:
1. Using your straightedge, draw a transversal through point P. This is simply a straight line which passes through P and intersects with given line. Drawing the line slanted will make the construction easier than if you draw the line vertical. Be sure to draw the line well above P.
2. Using the construction COPY AN ANGLE, construct a copy of the angle formed by the transversal and the given line such that the copy will be located UP at point P. The vertex of the copied angle will be point P.
3. When you draw the line to complete the angle copy, you will be drawing a line parallel to the given line.
