i86 PROBLEMS IN GEOMETRICAL DRAWING.
protractor may also be constructed on paper and used for
measuring angles, but it should then always be made on as
large a scale as convenient.

To draw a protractor with a division of 5°. (See Fig. 10).
Construct an angle of exactly 90 degrees, divide the arc into
nine equal parts, then each part is 10c
; divide each part into
two equal parts and each is 5°.
Prove that the sum of the three angles in a triangle consists
of 180°. (See Fig. 11).
Solution
:
In the triangle a b c, extend
the base line to i. Draw the line
o fi,
parallel to the side a b,
thereby the angle g will be equal
to the angle d, and the angle h
/ must be equal to angle c. The
6 angle/is one angle in the triangle
and / + g + h = 1S0°, therefore
/ + d + c must also be 180°.
To draw on a given base line a triangle having angles 90°,
30° and 60°. (See Fig. 12).
Given line a b, required triangle is a, c, b.
Solution
:
Extend the line a b to twice its
length, to the point e. With e and b as
centers strike arcs intersecting each
other and erect the perpendicular a c.
With b as center and any radius as /,
draw the arc / ?n. With / as center
and with the same radius, describe arc
intersecting at m. From b through
point of intersection at w, draw line b
intersecting the perpendicular at c.
This will complete the triangle.
