Using rulers and compasses only, draw an angle of measure 135°.

Question:

Using rulers and compasses only, draw an angle of measure 135°.

Solution:

Steps of construction:

1. Draw a line segment AB and produce BA to C.

2. Keeping A as the center and any radius draw an arc which intersects AC at D and AB at E.

3. Keeping D and E as center and radius more than half of DE draw arcs which intersect each other at F.

4. Join FA which intersects the arc in (2) at G.

5. Keeping G and D as center and radius more than half of GD draw arcs which intersect each other at H.

6. Join HA.

Therefore ∠HAB = 135°  .
