Question 1.
In Step II of the construction using ruler and compasses, (NCERT Textbook page 285) what would happen if we take the length of radius to be smaller than half the length of \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\)?
Solution:
In case we take the radius smaller than half of the length of \(\overline{\mathrm{AB}}\), the arcs will not intersect each other at two points P and Q.

Question 1.
In Step II (See NCERT Page 289) above, what would happen if we take radius to be smaller than half the length BC?
Solution:
If we take the radius to be smaller than half of BC, the arcs drawn with centres B and C will not intersect each other.

Question 1.
How will you construct a 15Ā° angle?
Solution:
Steps of construction:
Step I: Construct an angle ABC of 60Ā°.
Step II: Bisect āˆ ABC to get an angle of 30Ā°, i.e. āˆ ABD = 30Ā°.

Step III: Bisect āˆ ABD, such that \(\overrightarrow{\mathrm{BE}}\) is bisector of āˆ ABD.
Thus, āˆ ABE = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)(30Ā°) = 15Ā°.

Question 1.
How will you construct a 150Ā° angle?
Solution:
Steps of construction:
Step I: Draw a line l and mark a point O on it.
Step II: With centre O and a convenient radius, draw an arc intersecting l at A.
Step III: With the same radius and centre at A, draw an arc to cut the first arc at B.
Step IV: Again with the same radius and centre at B, draw another arc to intersect the first arc at C.

Step V: Once again with the same radius and centre at C, draw an arc to cut the first arc at D.
Step VI: Now, bisect āˆ COD, such that āˆ COE = āˆ EOD = 30Ā°
Step VII: Since, 150Ā° = 120Ā° + 30Ā°, therefore āˆ AOC + āˆ COE = āˆ AOE. Thus, āˆ AOE is the required angle Whose measure is 150Ā°

Question 1.
How will you construct a 45Ā° angle?
Solution:
Steps of construction:
Step I: Construct an angle of 90Ā° as shown in the figure. āˆ POQ = 90Ā°.

Step II: Draw OR,the angle bisector of āˆ POQ such that
\(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)[āˆ POQ] = \(\frac { 1 }{ 2 }\)(90Ā°) = 45Ā°
or āˆ POQ = 45Ā°
