Draw an angle of 40°. Copy its supplementary angle.

Steps of Construction-

1. Draw an angle of 40° with the help of protractor, naming AOB.


2. Draw a line PQ. Take any point M on PQ.



3. Place the compasses at O and draw an arc to cut the rays of AOB at L and N.


4. Use the same compasses setting to draw an arc O as centre, cutting MQ at X. Set your compasses to length LN with the same radius.



5. Place the compasses at X and draw the arc to cut the arc drawn earlier Y. Join MY.


6. Thus, QMY = 40° and PMY is supplementary of it.
