It is possible to construct an angle of 10⁰ degree by compass.yes or no
If yes than how and ,
If no than why
 

Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

We can construct angles , As we have shown in steps some of angle constructions .

Step 1 :  Draw a line AB 

Step 2 :  Now take any radius in our compass . draw a semicircle , That meet at X our line AB .

Step 3 :  Now we take center X and draw an arc with same radius that meet our semicircle at ' C ' And with same radius draw an arc taking center ' C ' that meet our semicircle at ' D ' .

Thats how we get  $\angle$ CAB  =  60$°$  And $\angle$ DAB  =  120$°$

Step 4 :  Now we draw two arcs as with same radius and center C and D , these arcs meet at E . So we get

$\angle$ EAB  =  90$°$  ,  Line AE meet our semicircle at 'Y'

Step 5 :  Now we take same radius and center D and Y , these arcs meet at P . So we get

$\angle$ PAB  =  105$°$  .

Step 6 :  Now we take same radius and center C and Y , these arcs meet at Q . So we get

$\angle$ QAB  =  75$°$  .


Step 6 :  Now we take same radius and center C and X , these arcs meet at R . So we get

$\angle$ RAB  =  30$°$  . 

So we can construct so many angles with help of compass.



But we can't construct angle 10$°$   with the help of compass , As we only form angles  60$°$ , 120$°$  And angles between them As 90$°$ , 45$°$   , 150$°$ or 30$°$ 75$°$ or 22.5$°$ .
