Using a protractor and a ruler draw triangle ABC with A=35 and AC=6 and C=65
What is your question about this assignment?
Draw AC very long, mark off 6 inches or centimeters or whatever along that line calling one point A and the other C.
Now we need to find B
from A draw a line at 35 degrees to AC toward C
From C draw a line at 65 degrees to AC toward C
call the intersection B
done
The acute angles of the right isosceles triangle are congruent. You rotate the triangle 65∘
counterclockwise about the origin.
To draw triangle ABC with the given information, you will need a protractor, a ruler, and a blank sheet of paper. Follow these steps:
1. Start by drawing a straight line segment AB using the ruler. This will represent the base of the triangle.
2. Place the protractor at point A, aligning the base of the protractor along the line segment AB. Ensure that the center of the protractor is exactly at point A.
3. Look for the angle measurement corresponding to A=35° on the protractor. Mark this point on the paper using a small dot. This is point C.
4. Use the ruler to draw a line segment AC from point A to point C. This will form one side of the triangle.
5. Measure and mark a line segment AD of length 6 units along the line segment AC. Use the ruler to ensure accuracy.
6. Now, place the protractor at point C, aligning the base of the protractor along the line segment AC. Ensure that the center of the protractor is exactly at point C.
7. Look for the angle measurement corresponding to C=65° on the protractor. Mark this point on the paper using a small dot. This is point B.
8. Use the ruler to draw a line segment BC from point B to point C. This will form the second side of the triangle.
9. Finally, use the ruler to connect points A and B with a straight line segment. This will complete the triangle.
By following these steps, you should have successfully drawn triangle ABC with A=35°, AC=6, and C=65°.
