Start with a angle BAC that we will copy.
1. Make a point P that will be the vertex of the new angle.
2. From P, draw a ray PQ. This will become one side of the new angle.

This ray can go off in any direction.
It does not have to be parallel to anything else.
It does not have to be the same length as AC or AB.

3. Place the compasses on point A, set to any convenient width.
4. Draw an arc across both sides of the angle, creating the points J and K as shown.
5. Without changing the compasses' width, place the compasses' point on P and draw a similar arc there, creating point M as shown.
6. Set the compasses on K and adjust its width to point J.
7. Without changing the compasses' width, move the compasses to M and draw an arc across the first one, creating point L where they cross.
8. Draw a ray PR from P through L and onwards a little further. The exact length is not important.
Done. The angle ∠RPQ is congruent (equal in measure) to angle ∠BAC.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: Draw a working line, l, with point B on it.

Open your compass to any radius r, and construct arc (A, r) intersecting the two sides of angle A at points S and T.

Construct arc (B, r) intersecting line l at some point V.

Construct arc (S, ST).

£620 is divided between Malachy, Paul &amp; Brian so that Malachy gets twice as much as Paul, and Paul gets three times as much
geniusboy [140]

Answer: Paul gets £186

Step-by-step explanation:

Paul has 1/2 as much as Malachy, and Brian has 1/3 as much Paul, therefore Brian has 1/6 as much as Malachy.

1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6

So Malachy’s amount equals 1 in this equation, Paul’s amount equals 1/2 in this equation, and Brian’s amount equals 1/6 in this equation.

1 + 1/2 + 1/6 = 1 + 3/6 + 1/6 = 1 4/6

Now, divide 620 by 1 4/6 to find Malachy’s amount.

620/1 4/6 = 372

Now, divde 372 by 2 to get Paul’s amount.

372/2 = 186
