Q3 of 33 Page 291

Draw a right angle and construct its bisector.

Steps of Construction-

1. Draw a line PQ and take a point O on it.


2. Taking O as centre and convenient radius, draw an arc which intersects PQ at A and B.



3. Taking A and B as centers and radius more than half of AB, draw two arcs which intersect each other at C.


4. Join OC. Thus, COQ is the required right angle.



5. Taking B and E as centre and radius more than half of BE, draw two arcs which intersect each other at the point D.


6. Join OD. Thus, OD is the required bisector of COQ.
