Take a compass. Open it so that it is a large enough radius to be easy to draw, but small enough that it still marks on both lines of the angle. Draw an arc that crosses both lines making up the angle, then place the point on each of these intersections and draw two more arcs of the same size so that they intersect. Using a straightedge, draw a line from the point of the angle to the intersection. That is the bisecting line.

You can bisect an angle using the paper folding technique?
Yes, you can bisect an angle using the paper folding technique.
When you bisect an angle you are?
Dividing the angle into 2 congruent angles
What does it mean for diagonals to bisect each other?
to bisect an angle means to cut it in half
Is it true that you cannot bisect an angle using paper folding constructions?
No. It is possible to fold an angle on paper to bisect it.
Do diagonals bisect at a Right angle in a rectangle?
No but the diagonals of a square bisect each other at right angles
How do you bisect an obtuse angle?
In the same way that you bisect an acute triangle. Alternatively, you could extend one of the rays of the obtuse angle so that you have an acute angle. Bisect that angle and then draw a perpendicular to the bisector of the acute angle through the vertex.

Yes, you can bisect an angle using the paper folding technique.
When you bisect an angle you are?

What is it called when divide an angle in two equal angle?
bisect
Does a bisector cut an angle in half?
To bisect an angle is to divide the angle in half.
What does it mean for diagonals to bisect each other?
to bisect an angle means to cut it in half
What is bisect?
A bisect splits something completely in half whether it is an angle, a line, or whatever
Is it true that you cannot bisect an angle using paper folding constructions?
No. It is possible to fold an angle on paper to bisect it.
Does the angle bisector in a triangle bisect the opposite side?
Not necessarily. The only time that the angle bisector would bisect the opposite side is if you were bisecting the vertex angle of an isosceles triangle.
What is an angle into two equals angles?
Bisect.
When you divide an angle into two equal you it?
You bisect it.
What does bisect mean in maths terms?
Bisect means to seperate or split something into equal parts , like an angle bisector splits an angle exactly in half
