Example 1: Construct A Line Segment XY of 7.5 CM
i)LINE SEGMENT
i)PERPENDICULAR BISECTOR
Step 2: With the same length, draw another 2 arcs from U to intersect the first 2 arcs.
Step 3: Join the intersection points of the arcs. Label them as VW.

iv) PARALLEL LINES
Step 1: With the distance on the compasses equal to the length of TV, construct an arc
from T passing through V.
Step 3: With distance on compasses equal to length of TU, construct arc from V
intersecting arc in step 2.

ii)ANGLE BISECTOR
Example 1: Construct bisector of angle DEF
Step 1: Place point of the compasses at E. With suitable length, draw arc which
cut DE at P and EF at Q.
Step 3: Without changing length, draw arc from Q to intersect the first arc. Mark
the intersection as X.
