Question 5 (a)

Construct with ruler and compasses, angles of following measures:
${60}^{\circ }$

Answer 1

Steps of construction:

(i) Draw a ray $\overline{OA}$.
(ii) Taking O as centre and convenient radius, mark an arc, which intersects $\overline{OA}$ at P.
(iii) Taking P as centre and the same radius, cut the previous arc at Q.

(iv) Join $\overline{OQ}$. Thus, $\angle QOA$ = ${60}^{\circ }$ .
