bisection of an angle
Ray that divides an angle into 2 adjacent congruent angels
Bisection of an angle refers to dividing an angle into two equal parts or halves. This can be achieved using a compass and a straightedge or ruler. The steps to bisect an angle are as follows:
1. Draw a straight line and label the endpoints as A and B.
2. Place the compass point on point A and draw an arc that intersects the line at two points.
3. Keep the same compass width and place the compass point on point B. Draw another arc that intersects the line at two points.
4. Label one of the intersection points as C and the other as D.
5. Use the straightedge or ruler to draw a line that connects point C to point D.
6. This line will bisect the angle formed by lines AB and AC, creating two equal angles.
