Draw a pair of vertically opposite angles. Bisect each of the two angles. Verify that the bisecting rays are in the same line.
To do:
We have to draw a pair of vertically opposite angles, bisect each of the two angles and verify that the bisecting rays are in the same line.
Solution:
Steps of construction:
(i) Draw two lines $AB$ and $CD$ intersecting each other at $O$.
(ii) Draw the bisector of $\angle AOD$ and also the bisector of $\angle BOC$ which are $OP$ and $OQ$ respectively.
$OP$ and $OQ$ are in the same straight line.
