Angle bisector 3. Equilateral triangle (60 degree angle) 4. Perpendicular to a line from a point not on the line 5, Perpendicular to a line from a point on the line ‘You should also be able to combine these to construct angles of certain measure (0.9., 90°, 105", 135°, 75°, etc). Remember that construction means using only a straight edge and a ccompass...no rulers or protractors! Practice these things ur you have them down pat! tps: www baroody.orgGeometyyHonors/Class Nolos/Chapter 2Lesson2-tiLesson2-1.himl 44
