Open in App
Solution

Let's construct an angle 60° by following the steps -

Step 1: Draw a line l and mark a point P on it. Consider P as the center and with a convenient radius on the compass, draw an arc of a circle such that it intersects the line l at Q.

Step 2: Consider Q as the center and with the same radius as before, draw an arc intersecting the previously drawn arc at point R.

Step 3: Join PR. PR is the required ray making 60° with the line l.

Hence, the above drawn angle is required angle.
