Tamilnadu Samacheer Kalvi 7th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 5 Geometry Ex 5.5

Question 1.
Construct the following angles using ruler and compass only.
(i) 60°
(ii) 120°
(iii) 30°
(iv) 90°
(v) 45°
(vi) 150°
(vii) 135°
Solution:
(i) 60°
Construction :
Step 1: Drawn a line and marked a point ‘A’ on it.
Step 2: With A as center drawn an arc of convenient radius to meet the line at a point B.

Step 3: With the same radius and B as center drawn an arc to cut the previous arc at C.
Step 4: Joined AC. The ∠ABC is the required angle with the measure 60°.

(ii) 120°
Construction :
Samacheer Kalvi 7th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 5 Geometry Ex 5.5 2
We know that there are two 60° angles in 120°.
∴ We can construct two 60° angles consecutively construct 120°
Step 1: Drawn a line and marked a point ‘A’ on it.
Step 2: With ‘A’ as center, drawn an arc of convenient radius to the line at a point B.
Step 3: With the same radius and B as center, drawn an arc to cut the previous arc at C.
Step 4: With the same radius and C as center, drawn an arc to cut the arc drawn in step 2 at D.
Step 5: Joined AD. Then ∠BAD is the required angle with measure 120°.

(iii) 30°
Constructions :
Samacheer Kalvi 7th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 5 Geometry Ex 5.5 50
Since 30° is half of 60°, we can construct 30° by bisecting the angle 60°.
Step 1: Drawn a line and marked a point A on it.
Step 2: With A as center drawn an arc of convenient radius to the line to meet at a point B.
Step 3: With the same radius and B as center drawn an arc to cut the previous arc at C.
Step 4: Joined AC to get ∠BAC = 60°
Step 5: With B as center drawn an arc of convenient radius in the interior of ∠BAC
Step 6: With the same radius and C as center drawn an arc to cut the previous arc at D.
Step 7: Joined AD.
∴ ∠BAD is the required angle of measure 30°.

Step 1: Drawn a line and marked a point ‘A’ on it.
Step 2: With ‘A’ as center, drawn an arc of convenient radius to the line at a point B.
Step 3: With the same radius and B as center drawn an arc to cut the previous arc at ‘C’.
Step 4: With the same radius and C as center, drawn an arc to cut the arc drawn in step 2 at D.
Step 5: Joined AD. ∠BAD = 120°.
Step 6: With C as center, drawn an arc of convenient radius in the interior of ∠CAD.
Step 7: With the same radius and D as center, drawn an arc to cut the arc at E.
Step 8: Joined AF ∠BAE = 90°.

(v) 45°
Construction :
Step 1: Drawn a line and marked a point A on it
Samacheer Kalvi 7th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 5 Geometry Ex 5.5 99
Step 2: With A as center, drawn an arc of convenient radius to the line at a point B.
Step 3: With the same radius and B as center drawn an arc to cut the previous arc at C.
Step 4: With the same radius and C as center, drawn an arc to cut the arc drawn in step 2 at D.
Step 5: Joined AD. ∠BAD = 120°.
Step 6: With G as center and any convenient radius drawn an arc in the interior of ∠GAB
Step 7: With the same radius and B as center drawn an arc to cut the arc at F.
Step 8: Joined AF. ∠BAF = 45°

(vi) 150°
Construction :
Samacheer Kalvi 7th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 5 Geometry Ex 5.5 98
Since 150° = 60° + 60° + 30°; we construct as follows
Step 1: Drawn a line and marked a point A on it.
Step 2: With ‘A’ as center, drawn a full arc of convenient radius to the line at a point B and at E the other end.
Step 3: With the same radius and B as center, drawn an arc to cut the previous arc at C.
Step 4: With the same radius and C as center drawn an arc to cut the already drawn arc at D.
Step 5: With D as center, drawn an arc of convenient radius in the interior of ∠DAE
Step 6: With E as center and with the same radius drawn an arc to cut the previous arc at F.
Step 7: Joined AF, ∠FAB = 150°.

(vii) 135°
Construction :
Samacheer Kalvi 7th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 5 Geometry Ex 5.5 95
Step 1: Drawn a line and marked a point A on it.
Step 2: With ‘A’ as center, drawn an arc of convenient radius to the line at a point B.
Step 3: With the same radius and B as center drawn an arc to cut the previous arc at C.
Step 4: With the same radius and C as center, drawn an arc to cut the arc at D.
Step 5: With C and D as centers drawn arcs of convenient (same) radius in the interior of ∠CAD. Marked the point of intersection as E.
Step 6: Joined AE, through G. ∠BAE = 90°.
Step 7: Drawn angle bisector to ∠GAH through F.
Now ∠BAF = 135°.
