Let’s go through each angle one by one. You’re being asked to draw an angle using a protractor, starting from the horizontal line already drawn (which points to the right — that’s 0°).
Remember:
- Place the center of your protractor on the dot at the end of the line.
- Line up the 0° mark with the existing line.
- Find the degree number given in the problem.
- Make a small dot at that degree mark.
- Draw a line from the center dot to your new dot.
Now let’s do each one:
1) 35°
→ Start at 0°, count 35 degrees upward (counter-clockwise). That’s a small acute angle.
2) 10°
→ Very small angle — just barely above the horizontal line. Count 10 degrees up.
3) 145°
→ This is obtuse. From 0°, go all the way past 90° (straight up), then keep going to 145°. It will point up and to the left.
4) 125°
→ Also obtuse. Past 90°, but not as far as 145°. Pointing up-left, but less steep than 145°.
5) 75°
→ Acute, close to 90°. Almost straight up, but still leaning a bit to the right.
6) 60°
→ Acute. Halfway between 0° and 90° would be 45°, so 60° is a bit more than halfway up.
You don’t need to calculate anything — just measure and draw!
Final Answer:
Draw each angle as described:
1) 35° — small upward angle
2) 10° — very slight upward tilt
3) 145° — wide angle pointing up-left
4) 125° — medium-wide angle pointing up-left
5) 75° — nearly vertical, slightly right-leaning
6) 60° — clearly upward, about two-thirds to vertical
Use your protractor carefully for each!
