Solution
1. Draw a line SG of length 6.7cm
2. We have to construct 70o at S. Take any angle length on compass, draw an arc XX′. Place the compass of X and cut two arcs (1 and 2). From there two arcs, cut another arc at 3. With the same measure compass needle at 3, cut arc 4 and extend it down.
3. By measuring the length 2x by a compass (the dotted lines). Place the compass at 1 and cut the arc at 4. Both arc will meet at a point z and mark 70o at S
4. Now construct 50o at G. Take out any length on a compass, cut the arc YY′. With the same measure cut y1 and y2. Measure y1 from G and cut an arc. Similarly measure y2 from G and cut an arc. They meet at C. Join the lines Z and CC. Now we get point N.
