Question

Use a straightedge and a compass to construct a triangle with 2 sides having the same length. Describe the process you used. Now use a protractor to measure each angle of the triangle. What are the measures of each angle?

Answer 1

the same side triangle? or at least 2 side same triangle

Answer 2

2 sides have to have the same length

Answer 3

We really can't do that on a computer bro I'd have to draw in real life... :L

Answer 4

I know I don't have a compass, straightedge, or a protractor :(

Answer 5

try a program called Geogebra it is specialized in that sort of thing

Answer 6

Cool okay thanks

Answer 7

No problem

Answer 8

the angle must be 90 45 45

Answer 9

Okay

Answer 10

yea the angles have to sum up to 180 so 90, 45 and 45 degrees work perfectly... In other words make a right triangle and there you go

Answer 11

my angle has to look like this <

Answer 12

I figured it out, thanks guys

Answer 14

1. Draw a straight line
2. copy the line so the new line is started at one point of the original line (the thing where you extend your protractor so it is the length of the line) --> this can be at any angle
3. draw a line that connects the first two lines
4. Measure the angles and write that down

Answer 15

in #1, the straight line can be any length
