It is possible to construct a 20 degree angle using only Ruler and Compass. I happened to stumble across a method that is highly accurate.
It is posted on my blog. Check the related link
First draw a 90 degree angle .Than draw a 20 degree angle from that 90 degree angle . Than the rest of the angle will be 90-20=70 .Now bisect the 70 degree angle we will get 70/2=35. Now add the rest of the angle means 35+20 =55 GOT 55 DEGREE ANGLE
Easiest is to use a protractor. Alternative: Draw a 90 degree angle. Bisect the external angle so that it is 45 degrees. Trisect that angle so that the angle adjacent to the 90 degree angle is 15 deg Then 90 + 15 degrees = 105 degrees. Both, bisection and trisection require the use of a compass (and ruler).
False
You cannot, you must use a protractor.
Construct a circle and divide the circumference into 36 equal arcs Each arc will represent 10 degrees and 11 of them subtended to the circle's centre will create an obtuse angle of 110 degrees
by using a ruler and a compass
pad khaoo !!
Use a ruler
use trisection method
first draw a ray .
Construct 2 perpendicular lines which will meet at 90 degrees then by bisecting this angle wll give a 45 degree angle

With the ruler and compass construct a right angle isosceles triangle with a base of 9 cm At 4 cm from the LHS or RHS of the base draw a line that meets the apex of the triangle The angle of this line will be 40 degrees because each 1 cm of base space represents 10 degrees when joined to the apex
to construct an angle of 20 degrees all you have to do is to trisect an angle of 60degrees
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.
