Question

How to construct a 15 degree angle with a compass?

Answer 1

first draw an angle of 60 degree and then bisect it and then again bisect it. with this u will get 15 degree

Answer 2

To construct a 15 degree angle the following steps are to be followed-

1. Construction in geometry is a very delicate process and has to be executed neatly. It has to be drawn in a very accurate manner.

2. To construct a 15 degree angle-

a. A straight line is to be drawn which forms the foundation of the entire construction.

b. A  sixty degree angle is to be constructed using the compass and the ruler.

c. Intersecting the sixty degree angle will create a thirty degree angle. 60 when divided into half results in 30.

d. Intersecting the created thirty degree angle will result in the formation of a fifteen-degree angle. 30 divided by 2 is 15.
