TS 6th Class Maths Solutions Chapter 13 Practical Geometry Exercise 13.5
Question 1.
Construct ∠ABC = 60° without using protractor.
Answer:
Steps of construction:
- Draw a line l and choose a point B on it.
- Place the pointer of the compasses at B and draw an arc of convenient radius which cuts the line / at a point say C.
- Take C as centre and with the same radius (as in step 2) in draw an arc.
- Now take B as centre and with the same radius (as in step 2), draw another arc cutting the previous arc (drawn in step 2) at A.
- Join AB, we get ∠ABC whose measure is 60°.
Question 2.
Construct an angle of 120° with using protractor and compasses.
Answer:
With using compasses:
Steps of construction:
- Draw any ray OA.
- Place the pointer of the compasses at O with O as centre and any convenient radius draw an arc cutting OA at M.
- With M as centre and without altering radius (as in step 2) draw an arc which cuts the first arc at P.
- With P as centre and without altering the radius (as in step 2) draw an arc which cuts the first arc at Q.
- Join OQ. Then ∠AOQ is the required angle.
With Using protractor:
Steps of construction :
- Draw a ray QR of any length.
- Place the centre point of the protractor at
Q and the line aligned with the \(\overline{\mathrm{QR}}\). - Mark at a point P at 120°.
- Join QP. ∠PQR is the required angle.
Question 3.
Construct the following angles using ruler and compasses. Write the steps of construction in each case.
(i) 75°
Answer:
Steps of construction:
- Draw any ray OA.
- Place the pointer of the compasses at O. With ‘O’ as centre and any convenient radius draw an arc cutting OA at M.
- With M as centre and without altering radius (as in step 2) draw an arc which, cuts the first arc at P.
- With P as centre and without altering the radius (as in step 2) draw an arc which cuts the first arc at Q.
- Join OQ. ∠AOQ = 120° (∵∠AOP + ∠POQ = 60°)
∠AOQ = ∠AOP + ∠POQ = 60° + 60° = 120° - Draw OB the perpendicular bisector of ∠POQ.
Now ∠POB = ∠QOB = 30°
∴∠AOB = 90° - Draw OC the perpendicular bisector of ∠POB.
Now ∠POC = ∠BOC = 15° - ∠AOC = ∠AOP + ∠OC
= 60° + 15°
= 75°
(or)
∠AOC = ∠AOB – ∠BOC
= 90° – 15°
= 75°
∠AOC is the required angle whose measure is 75°.
(ii) 15°
Answer:
Steps of construction:
- Draw a line l and mark a point O on it.
- Place the pointer of the compasses at O and draw an arc of convenient radius which cuts the line / at a point say A.
- With the pointer at A (as centre) and the same radius as in the step – 2, now draw an arc that passes through O.
- Let the two arcs intersect at B. Join OB. We get ∠BOA whose measure is 60°.
- Draw the bisector OC of ∠AOB. Now ∠AOC = 30°.
[∠AOC = ∠BOC = 30° ] - Draw the bisector OD of ∠AOC. Now ∠AOD = 15°.
[∠AOD = ∠COD = 15°] - ∠AOD = 15° is the required angle.
(iii) 105°
Answer:
Steps of construction:
- Draw any ray OM.
- Place the pointer of the compasses at O. With O as centre and any convenient radius draw an arc cutting OM at A.
- With A as centre and without altering radius (as in step 2) draw an arc which cuts the first arc at B.
- With B as centre and without altering radius (as in step 2) draw an arc which cuts the first arc at B.
- Join QC. ∠AOC = 120°.
- We know that ∠AOB = ∠BOC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠AOC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 120° = 60°
- Draw OD the bisector of ∠BOC.
∴ ∠BOD = ∠DOC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠BOC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 60° = 30° - Draw OE the bisector of ∠DOC.
∴ ∠DOE = ∠EOC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) ∠DOC = \(\frac{1}{2}\) × 30° = 15° - Now ∠AOE = ∠AOD + ∠DOE = 90° + 15° = 105°
- ∠AOE = 105° is the required angle.
Question 4.

Answer:
The angles given in Q. 3 are 75°, 105° and 15°.
(i) 75°
Steps of construction:
- Draw a ray QR of any length.
- Place the centre point of the protractor at Q and the line aligned with the \(\overline{\mathrm{QR}}\).
- Mark a point P at 75°.
- Join QP. ∠RQP is the required angle.
(ii) 105°
Steps of construction:
- Draw a ray QR of any length.
- Place the centre point of the protractor at Q and the line aligned with the \(\overline{\mathrm{QR}}\).
- Mark a point P at 105°
- Join QP. ∠RQP is the required angle.
(iii) 15°
Steps of construction:
- Draw a ray QR of any length.
- Place the centre point of the protractor at Q and the line aligned with the \(\overline{\mathrm{QR}}\).
- Mark a point P at 15°
- Join QP. ∠RQP is the required angle.
Question 5.
Construct ∠ABC = 50° and then draw another angle ∠XYZ equal to ∠ABC without using a protactor.
Answer:
Steps of construction:
- Make an angle ∠ABC = 50° v
- Draw a line l and choose a point Y on it.
- Use the same compasses setting to draw an arc with Y as centre, cutting l in Z.
- Set your compasses to the length MN.
- With the same radius place the compasses pointer at Z and draw an arc to cut the arc drawn earlier at X.
- Join XY. This gives us ∠XYZ. It has the same measure as ∠ABC i.e,, 50°.
Question 6.
Construct ∠DEF = 60°. Bisect it, measure each half by using a protractor.
Answer:
Steps of construction :
- Draw a line P and mark a point ‘E’ on it.
- Place the pointer of the compasses at E and draw an arc of convenient radius which cuts the line \(\overleftrightarrow{\mathrm{PQ}}\) at a point say F.
- With the pointer at F (as centre), now draw an arc that passes through E.
- Let the two arcs intersect at D. Join ED. We get ∠DEF whose measure is 60°.
- Draw OC the bisector of ∠DEF.
- Now ∠FEC = ∠CED = 30°.
