To construct an angle equal to a given angle, you need a pencil and a ....?
the "classic" tools of geometry:
straight edge and compass
To construct an angle equal to a given angle, you will need a pencil and a protractor.
Here's how you can use a protractor to construct an angle:
1. Start by drawing a straight line using the pencil.
2. Place the center of the protractor on the vertex of the angle. The vertex is the point where the two lines or line segments meet.
3. Align one side of the angle with the 0-degree mark on the protractor. Make sure it's perfectly aligned.
4. Read the measurement in degrees where the other side of the angle intersects with the protractor. This measurement is the given angle. Take note of it.
5. Now, draw a new straight line using the pencil, and mark a point on this line to indicate the vertex of the new angle.
6. Next, align the 0-degree mark of the protractor with the vertex of the new angle and line up the side of the angle according to the measurement you obtained earlier.
7. Finally, draw the other side of the angle through the marked vertex point using the pencil.
By following these steps, you can construct an angle equal to a given angle using a pencil and a protractor.
A protractor maybe?
Hope that helps
