How do I draw a reflex angle ZYX so that it measures 255 degrees?
To draw a reflex angle ZYX that measures 255 degrees, follow these steps:
1. Start by drawing a line segment XY. This will be the base of the angle.
2. At the point X, draw a line segment XZ, making any angle with XY.
3. Using a protractor, measure an angle of 255 degrees starting from the line segment XY. Place the center of the protractor on point X and align the zero-degree mark with the line segment XY.
4. Draw an arc on the protractor, starting from the zero-degree mark, and continue until the arc intersects with the line segment XZ.
5. Label the point of intersection as Y.
6. Connect points Z and Y with a line segment.
7. The angle ZYX is a reflex angle that measures 255 degrees.
Remember that a reflex angle is an angle that is greater than 180 degrees but less than 360 degrees.
