Well, honey, you start by drawing a line with your ruler. Then, you put the point of your compass on one end of the line and draw an arc. Next, you put the point of your compass on where the arc intersects the line and draw another arc. Where those arcs meet is your 32-degree angle. Voila!

To construct a 32-degree angle using a ruler and compass, start by drawing a horizontal line segment. Place the compass needle on one endpoint of the line and draw an arc that intersects the line. Without changing the compass width, place the needle on the other endpoint and draw another arc that intersects the first arc. The angle formed by the intersection of these two arcs with the horizontal line will be approximately 32 degrees.
first draw a ray .
Draw a point, and a long straight line through it. Put the centre of the compass over the point, with north on the compass (or zero degrees) on the line. Then draw a second line out from the point at 80 degrees on the compass. You'll then have a 80 degree angle between the lines. It's usually a trick that teachers decide to do on their pupils. A compass is what you use to find north and a pair of compasses is used to draw circles.
Construct a 90 degree angle isosceles triangle which will have equal sides and then divide the base into 9 equal parts joining the parts by lines to the apex of the trangle. Each line represents 10 degrees and 8 lines will equal to 80 degrees.
An instrument to construct straight lines is called a rule. It's often referred to as a ruler, but a ruler is someone who rules a country. A rule is a piece of wood, metal or plastic (usually showing measurements) that you can use to draw/construct straight lines.A straight edgeThe most common one is a ruler
The instrument that is used to construct straight lines is called a rule. Often people make the mistake of calling it a ruler, but its a rule.
