Draw an angle of 70∘. Make a copy of it using only a straight edge and compasses.
Steps of construction are:
Step 1: Draw a ray AB
Step 2 will be:
- Taking D as center and any radius, draw an arc intersecting the previous arc at E.
- Taking A as centre and any convenient radius, draw an arc intersecting ray AB at a point D.
- Using protractor, draw an angle 60∘.
- Taking D as center and same radius, draw an arc intersecting the previous arc at E.
Draw a line l and a point X on it. Through X, draw a line segment ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯XY perpendicular to l. Now draw a perpendicular to ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯XY to Y. (use ruler and compasses)
