The correct Answer is:
To draw an angle of 105 degrees using a pair of compass and ruler by bisecting angles, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Angles to Bisect**: We need to find two angles whose bisected sum equals 105 degrees. After evaluating the options, we find that the angles 90 degrees and 120 degrees will work. 2. **Draw a 90-degree Angle**: - Start by drawing a straight line using a ruler. This will be one arm of the angle. - Use a compass to draw a circle with a center at one end of the line. - Mark the point where the circle intersects the line. This is point A. - Now, without changing the compass width, place the compass on point A and draw an arc above the line. - Now, place the compass on the intersection point of the line and the arc, and draw another arc that intersects the first arc. - Label the intersection point as B. - Draw a line from the center to point B. This line forms a 90-degree angle with the original line. 3. **Draw a 120-degree Angle**: - From the same starting point, use the compass to draw another circle. - Mark the point where the circle intersects the line as point C. - Now, draw an arc above the line from point C, similar to the previous step. - Place the compass on point C and draw another arc that intersects the first arc. - Label this intersection point as D. - Draw a line from the center to point D. This line forms a 120-degree angle with the original line. 4. **Bisect the Angles**: - Now, we need to bisect the angles formed by the lines you just drew (90 degrees and 120 degrees). - To bisect the 90-degree angle, place the compass at the vertex of the angle and draw arcs that intersect both arms of the angle. - Label the intersection points as E and F. - Now, draw a line from the vertex through the point where the arcs intersect. This line will bisect the 90-degree angle into two 45-degree angles. - Repeat the same process for the 120-degree angle, marking the intersection points as G and H, and drawing a line from the vertex through the intersection point. 5. **Measure the Resultant Angle**: - The angle formed between the original line and the bisector of the 90-degree angle will be 45 degrees. - The angle formed between the original line and the bisector of the 120-degree angle will be 60 degrees. - Therefore, the angle between the two bisectors (45 degrees + 60 degrees) will give us the required angle of 105 degrees. ### Final Result: Thus, by bisecting the angles of 90 degrees and 120 degrees, we can successfully draw an angle of 105 degrees.
