Question
Using rulers and compasses only, draw a right angle.
✓
Answer
Steps of construction:
- Draw a line segment AB.
- Keeping A as the center and any radius draw an arc which intersects AB at C.
- Keeping C as center and the same radius draw an arc which intersects the previous arc at D.
- Keeping D as the center and same radius draw an arc which intersects arc in (2) at E.
- Keeping E and D as center and radius more than half of ED draw arcs which intersect each other at F.
- Join FA.
