Ah, a curved line used to mark an angle is called an arc. Just like when we paint happy little trees, arcs can add a beautiful flow and grace to our artwork. Remember, there are no mistakes, just happy accidents, so embrace the curves and let your creativity shine!

A curved line used to mark an angle is called an arc. In geometry, an arc is a segment of a circle, typically denoted by three points to indicate its endpoints and the center of the circle. Arcs are commonly used to measure angles and define shapes in geometric figures.
Oh, dude, that's an arc. It's like a curved line that's all fancy and marks an angle. So, when you see that smooth, curvy line, you know you're dealing with an arc. It's like the swaggy cousin of a straight line.
To construct an angle of 142.5 degrees, you can start by drawing a straight line using a ruler. Then, using a protractor, mark a point on the line to serve as the vertex of the angle. Next, align the protractor so that the 0-degree mark is at one end of the line and the 180-degree mark is at the other end. Finally, mark a point at 142.5 degrees on the protractor, and draw a ray from the vertex through that point to create the angle of 142.5 degrees.
Figure out which way you want to draw your angle. If you wish to draw the angle to the left, use the bottom row of numbers listed on the top and sides of your protractor and vise versa. Make a mark next to the number of the angle you wish to make (example: a 45 degree angle you would make a mark next to the number 45) then trace the bottom flat edge of the protractor. Using the mark you just made, make a line to connect the mark and the line you drew.
Use a ruler to measure the line (horizontal?) and mark the middle of the line, then use a right-angle triangle to draw a vertical line 90 degrees from the mark. Or you can use a compass fitted with a pencil to draw arcs that will give the middle mark and a mark to line a ruler against to draw the perpendicular line required. Search Google for using a compass.
First, draw a line. Then, using a protractor, depending on what type of protractor you have, make a mark next to the 100° mark or 10° away from 90°. Finally, draw another line.
