CONSTRUCTIONS WORKSHEET #1 Use a safety compass and a straight edge to complete the following constructions. 1. Draw an acute angle and label it ∠ABC. Next, bisect the angle, then use a protractor to check for accuracy.

2. Using segment ST, construct an equilateral triangle.

3. Draw line segment PQ that is 4 inches long. Next, label a point T on PQ and then construct a line perpendicular to segment PQ through T. Label the new line f.

4. Construct a 30° angle and label it ∠7.

5. Draw a horizontal line and label it line LM. Locate a point above the line and name it N. Next, construct line JK perpendicular to line LM through point N.

6. Construct line MN as the perpendicular bisector of line segment QR.
