draw a perpendicular to XY at Y using ruler and compasses.​

Answer 1

Answer:

step

Step-by-step explanation:

(1) Draw a line l and mark a point X on it.

(2) Taking x as centre and with a convenient radius, draw an arc intersecting the l at two points A and B.

(3) With A and B as centre and a radius more than AX, construct two arcs intersecting each other at Y.

(4). Join XY, XY is perpendicular to l.
