Question
Draw a line segment PQ = 6 cm. Mark a point A in PQ so that AP = 2 cm. At point A, construct angle QAR = 60°.
Solution
Steps of Construction:
(i) Draw a line segment PQ = 6 cm.
(ii) Mark a point A on PQ so that AP = 2 cm.
(iii) With centre A and some suitable radius draw an arc meeting AQ at C.
(iv) With centre C and with the same radius, cut arc CB.
(v) Join AB and produce it to R.
Then ∠QAR = 60°
