Go to your drawing table. Draw a horizontal line and a vertical line. Where they intersect place your compass point and draw a 10 inch(or 10 cm) arc intersecting both lines. now measure a point from the center out 0.8715 inches (or cm) [this is equal to 10cos(85)] and place a mark on the horizontal line. draw a vertical line from this point to the arc. Draw a dark line from where this vertical intersects the arc to the center. Darken the horizontal line. these two darkened lines form an 85 degree angle.

remember the formula: [radius] x cos(angle)

note: the larger the arc the more accurate the angle .

How do you make 85 degrees angle with compass?

To create an 85-degree angle with a compass, first draw a straight line (the base of the angle). Place the compass point on one end of the line and draw an arc that intersects the line. Without changing the compass width, place the compass point on the point of intersection and draw another arc. Measure 85 degrees using a protractor from the base line to mark the angle, then draw a line from the vertex to this mark to complete the angle.


How do you bisect a 85 degree angle?

To bisect an 85-degree angle, start by drawing the angle with its two rays. Next, place the compass point at the vertex of the angle and draw an arc that intersects both rays. Without changing the compass width, place the compass point at each intersection point and draw two arcs that intersect each other. Finally, draw a line from the vertex through the intersection of the arcs; this line bisects the 85-degree angle into two equal 42.5-degree angles.
