Consider the construction of angle of 60° & on the same line,construct 90°.Bisect the angle between 60°-90° to get 75° then bisect 75° to obtain 37.5°

kvnmurty: please explain the construction of 60 deg angle..

Steps to construct an angle of 37.5 degrees with ruler and compass are as follows:

  • Make a line segment first.
  • Make a semicircle out of it.
  • By placing the compass needle on the place where the semicircle meets the line segment and drawing an arc with the same radius as the semicircle, you can get a 60° angle.
  • Draw a dotted line from the center to the place where your arc intersects the semicircle. This is the 60-degree angle.
  • By bisecting the entire 180°angle, you can make a 90° angle.
  • Between the 60° and 90° angles, there will now be a 30° angle.
  • If you divide the 30° angle in half, you'll get a 15° angle.
  • A 75° angle is formed by joining the 60° and 15° angles.
  • 75° is twice the  37.5-degree.
  • When you divide the 75° angle in half, you get 37.5-degree.
