Question
Using a pair of compasses construct the following angles:
60°

Answer


Steps of construction:
  1. Draw a ray QP.
  2. With Q as the centre and any convenient radius, draw an arc cutting QP at N.
  3. With N as the centre and the same radius as before, draw another arc to cut the previous arc at M.
  4. Draw QM and produce it to R.
$\angle\text{PQR}$ is the required angle of 60°.
