Question

Write the steps of construction of an angle ${60}^{\circ }$ given below.

Answer 1

In the construction of ${60}^{\circ }$,

• The first step is to construct a ray AB and
• The second step is taking A as the centre and any convenient radius, draw an arc intersecting ray AB at a point D.
• The third step is to draw an arc with the same radius intersecting at "E" with "D" as the centre.

Using a protractor for construction of the angle would not result in the above figure.
