Stretch the compasses to any width. Put the sharp end of the compasses at point B and draw an arc on the line. Label the point where the arc intersects the line as point C.
Second : While keeping the sharp end of the compasses at point B, move the compasses away from C and draw a second arc above the line about mid-way between points B and C.
Third: Without changing the width of the compasses, place the sharp end of the compasses at point C and draw an arc to intersect the second arc.
Lastly : Draw a line from point B to the point of intersection of the 2 arcs. Label the angle 60˚.
2. It is difficult to construct a regular polygon when it comes to it's perfection. Because we need to measure every lines and angles just to have a regular polygon.
3. I've realized that a regular polygon is a polygon with all sides the same length and all angles the same measure. EquilateralA polygon is equilateral if all of its sides are the same length. EquiangularA polygon is equiangular if all angles are the same measure 29. I've realized that you need to understand the methods of constructing to know how to construct it.
First= Place your compass point on A and measure the distance to point B. Swing an arc of this size above (or below) the segment.
Second= Without changing the span on the compass, place the compass point on B and swing the same arc, intersecting with the first arc.
Third= Label the point of intersection as the third vertex of the equilateral triangle.
Lastly= Finishing up and checking the error on plotting.
2. I find difficult in Step 2: Without changing the span on the compass, place the compass point on B and swing the same arc, intersecting with the first arc. Because in this part I will use compass which is I'm irritatedly using the compass. Because sometimes to much pointing the neddle it can cause the damage in my work.
3. I realized that constructing polygons are hard once you first saw it but when you review it can be easily to construct.
