Question

To construct an angle of ${60}^{\circ }$ with a compass and ruler,

Steps of construction are:
Step1: Draw a ray AB
Step 2 will be

• A. Using protractor, draw an angle ${60}^{\circ }$
• B. Taking A as centre and any convenient radius, draw an arc intersecting ray AB at a point D.
• C. Taking D as center and same radius, draw an arc intersecting the previous arc at E
• D. Taking D as center and any radius, draw an arc intersecting the previous arc at E

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Taking A as centre and any convenient radius, draw an arc intersecting ray AB at a point D.

In the construction of ${60}^{\circ }$, the first step is to construct a ray AB and the second step is taking A as centre and any convenient radius, draw an arc intersecting ray AB at a point D.
