Question
CBSEENMA9003174

Construct an angle of 90° at the initial point of a given ray and justify the construction.

Solution

Given: A ray OA.
Required: To construct an angle of 90° at O and justify the construction.
Steps of Construction:
1. Taking O as centre and some radius, draw an arc of a circle, which intersects OA, say at a point B.
2. Taking B as centre and with the same radius as before, draw an are intersecting the previously drawn are, say at a point C.

3. Taking C as centre and with the same radius as before, draw an arc intersecting the arc drawn in step 1, say at D.
4. Draw the ray OE passing through C. Then ∠EOA = 60°.
5. Draw the ray OF passing through D. Then ∠FOE = 60°.
6. Next, taking C and D as centres and with the radius more than 1 half ID, draw arcs to intersect each other, say at G.

7. Draw the ray OG. This ray OG is the bisector of the angle ∠FOE, i.e., ∠FOG
WiredFaculty

Justification:
(i) Join BC.
Then. OC = OB = BC (By construction)
∴ ∆COB is an equilateral triangle.
∴ ∠COB = 60°.
∴ ∠EOA = 60°.
(ii) Join CD.
Then, OD = OC = CD (By construction)
∴ ∆DOC is an equilateral triangle.
