How to contruct and bisect an …

STEPS: 1. Place compass point on the vertex of the angle (point B). 2. Stretch the compass to any length that will stay ON the angle. 3. Swing an arc so the pencil crosses both sides (rays) of the given angle. You should now have two intersection points with the sides (rays) of the angle. 4. Place the compass point on one of these new intersection points on the sides of the angle. If needed, stretch the compass to a sufficient length to place your pencil well into the interior of the angle. Stay between the sides (rays) of the angle. Place an arc in this interior (it is not necessary to cross the sides of the angle). 5. Without changing the span on the compass, place the point of the compass on the other intersection point on the side of the angle and make a similar arc. The two small arcs in the interior of the angle should be intersecting. 6. Connect the vertex of the angle (point B) to this intersection of the two small arcs. You now have two new angles of equal measure, with each being half of the original given angle.??

*first we should draw an angle next we should bisect an angle
