Question
Draw a line segment AB = 8 cm. Mark a point P in AB so that AP = 5 cm. At P, construct angle APQ = 30°.
Solution
Steps of Construction:
(i) Draw a line segment AB = 8 cm.
(ii) Mark a point P in AB such that AP = 5 cm.
(iii) With centre P and some suitable radius, draw an arc meeting AB in L.
(iv) With centre L and same radius cut arc LM.
(v) Bisect arc LM at N.
(vi) Join PN and produce it to Q.
Then ∠APQ = 30°
