Step-by-step solution
2 stepsComplete the construction of triangle ABC.
- Draw a line segment AB of length .
- At point A, construct an angle of . This is done by drawing an arc centered at A, then marking and along this arc. Draw a ray from A through the mark.
- With point B as the center, open the compass to a radius of . Draw an arc that intersects the ray from A. Label the intersection point C.
- Draw a line segment from B to C to complete the triangle ABC.
Measure the size of angle ABC.
Using a protractor, measure the angle at vertex B, which is .
From the provided figure, the measured angle is .To verify this measurement using trigonometry:
Given , , and .
Using the Sine Rule:The sum of angles in a triangle is :
The measured value of is consistent with the calculated value, allowing for typical construction and measurement tolerances.
