How to draw a 15 degree angle using a compass?
to draw a 15 deg angle.
steps of construction:
1. draw the arm PQ.
2. place the point of the compass at P and draw an arc that passes through Q.
3. place the point of the compass at Q and draw an arc that cuts the arc drawn in step 2 at R.
4. with the point of the compass still at Q, draw an arc near T as shown.
5. with the point of the compass at R, draw an arc to cut the arc drawn in step 4 at T.
6. join PT and let it cuts the arc drawn in step 2 at A.
7. place the point of the compass at A and draw an arc near S as shown.
8. with the point of compass at Q, draw an arc to cut the arc drawn in step 7 at S.
9. join PS.
thus ∠SPQ = 15 deg
hope this helps you.
cheers!!
