PLEASE MARK MY ANSWER AS BRAINLIEST !
Step-by-step explanation:
The steps of construction to follow:
Step 1: Draw a ray OP.
Then, take O as the center and any radius draw an arc cutting OP at Q.
Step 2: Now, taking Q as the center and with the same radius as before draw an arc cutting the previous arc at R. Repeat the process with R to cut the previous arc at S.
Step 3: Take R and S as center draw the arc of radius more than the half of RS and draw two arcs intersecting at A. Then, join OA.
Hence, ∠POA = 90°
Justification:
We need to justify, ∠POA = 90°
So, join OR and OS and RQ. we obtain
construction 4
By construction OQ = OS = QR.
So, △ROQ is an equilateral triangle. Similarly △ SOR is an equilateral triangle.
So, ∠SOR = 60°
Now, ∠ROQ = 60° that means ∠ROP = 60°
Then, join AS and AR:
construction 5
Now, in △OSA and △ORA:
SR = SR (common)
AS = AR (Radii of same arcs)
OS = OR (radii of the same arcs)
So, ∠SOA = ∠ROA = (∠SOR)
Therefore, ∠ROA = 30°
and ∠POA = ∠ROA +∠POR = 30° +60° =90°
Hence, justified.
