Which statement best explains why Ben uses the width HI to create the arc at J from point
K?

In your question where Ben uses a compass and straight edge to construct angle DEF equals to angle ABC as shown in the diagram. In my calculation the possible answer to the following questions is angle DEF is equals to angle ABC when JK is constructed equals to HI.

step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse = √(15² + 8²)

=  √(225 +64)

=  √(289) = 17

sin(x) = cos(y) = 8/17

they are identical so long as you are doing the sine of one angle and the cosine of the only other angle that isn't the right angle.
