Set the compass at a reasonable width.
Put the point of the compass on the point of the angle.
Draw an arc on each arm of the angle.
With the point of the compass on where one arc intersects one arm of the angle, draw a further arc between the arms of the angle (roughly in the middle).
With the point of the compass on the other arc-arm intersection, draw another arc to intersect this just drawn arc.
With a straight edge join this intersection to the point of the angle - this line bisects the angle.

Yes
The ancient Greeks could bisect an angle using only a compass and straightedge?
Its true just got it wrong
How do you bisect an angle using a ruler or double straightedge?
create a 'v' parralel to the 'v' of your angle using the width of your ruler, join the two apexes and continue the line to biscect the angle.

True
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.
If you bisect an obtuse angle you get 2 obtuse angles Right?
No. The biggest possible obtuse angle is one that's a hair less than 180 degrees. Bisect that, and each half is the biggest possible ACUTE angle.
Is it possible to trisect any angle using only a compass and straightedge?
True
Is it possible to construct an angle of 22.5 degrees using a compass and a straightedge?
Yes
Is possible to trisect any angle using only a compass and straightedge?
As a general rule, no.
