Answer: Here,
Hey mate,
Step-by-step explanation:
Constructing a 90º Angle:
We can construct a 90º angle either by bisecting a straight angle or using the following steps.
- Step 1: Draw the arm PA.
- Step 2: Place the point of the compass at P and draw an arc that cuts the arm at Q.
- Step 3: Place the point of the compass at Q and draw an arc of radius PQ that cuts the arc drawn in Step 2 at R.
- Step 4: With the point of the compass at R, draw an arc of radius PQ to cut the arc drawn in Step 2 at S.
- Step 5: With the point of the compass still at R, draw another arc of radius PQ near T as shown.
- Step 6: With the point of the compass at S, draw an arc of radius PQ to cut the arc drawn in step 5 at T.
- Step 7: Join T to P. The angle APT is 90º.
For construction please refer to the attachment given.
Good day,
Thanks:)
