how do you construct congruent angles show each step
-
(You will need a compass and a straightedge)
Step 1- Draw the first angle and label the vertex A
Step 2- Use a straightedge to draw a ray separate from the first angle and label the endpoint of that ray X
Step 3- Put the compass point on the vertex of that first angle and draw a large arc that intersects both sides of that angle (Label the top intersection B and the lower intersection C)
Step 4- Using the same compass setting, put the compass at the endpoint of the ray (point X) you drew in Step 2 and draw a large arc that starts above the ray and intersects the ray (Label that intersection Y)
Step 5- Place the point of the compass on C and adjust so that the pencil tip is on B
Step 6- Without changing the setting, place the compass at point Y and draw an arc to intersect the larger arc you drew in Step 4. Label the point of intersection Z.
Step 7- Use a straightedge to draw XZ (draw a line through the two points, forming an angle)
**(if you don't have a compass, use a protractor to measure the first angle and draw an angle with the same measurement)
