Question
Use a pair of compasses and construct the following angles:
15°

Answer


Steps of Construction:
  1. Draw a ray OA.
  2. With O as centre and any suitable radius draw an arc above OA, cutting it at B.
  3. With B as centre and same radius as before draw another arc to cut the previous arc at C. Join OC and prouce it to D.
  4. Draw the bisector OE of $\angle\text{AQD}.$ Then $\angle\text{AOE}=30^\circ.$
  5. Draw the bisector OF of $\angle\text{AOE}.$
Then, $\angle\text{AOF}=15^\circ$ is the required angle.
