4 Geometry and measures

4.3 Construction and loci

use a ruler and protractor to:
  • measure and draw lines to the nearest millimetre and angles, including reflex angles, to the nearest degree
  • construct a triangle, given two sides and the included angle (SAS) or two angles and the included side (ASA)

examples (127.37 KB) 		use straight edge and compasses to construct:
  • the midpoint and perpendicular bisector of a line segment
  • the bisector of an angle
  • the perpendicular from a point to a line
  • the perpendicular from a point on a line
  • a triangle, given three sides (SSS)
