Question

In your note-book copy the following angle using ruler and a pair compass only.

Answer 1

Steps of Construction:

1. A t point E, draw line EF.

2. With E as centre, draw an arc of any suitable radius, to cut the amis of the angle at C and D.

3. With Q as a centre, draw the arc of the same size as drawn for C and D. Let this arc cuts line QR at point T.

4. In your compasses, take the distance equal to the distance between C and D; and then with T as a centre, draw an arc which cuts the earlier arc at S.

5. Join QS and produce up to a suitable point R ∠PQR, so obtained, is the angle equal to the given ∠DEE
