How to Draw Angles

  • Drawing angles is similar to measuring angles.
  • If you can measure angles, you will quickly learn to draw them.
  • You need a protractor, sharp pencil, and ruler for drawing angles.

Examples

Example 1: Draw an angle of 50°.
Sol: Step 1: Draw a straight line using a ruler.

Step 2: Place the centre (cross section) of the protractor at one end of the line to form the vertex of the angle.

There are two lots of numbers on the protractor - on the inside and outside. Look for the zero that is on the same side as the line. It is on the left-hand side and on the outside.
Make a mark where the 50° is on the outside scale.

Example 2: Draw an angle of 120°.
Sol: Step 1: Draw a straight line using a ruler.
