Using ruler and a pair of compasses only,

(a) construct :

(i) \(\Delta\)XYZ such that |XY| = 10cm, < XYZ = 30° and < YXZ = 45°.

(ii) locus, \(l_{1}\), of points equidistant from Y and Z.

(iii) locus, \(l_{2}\), of points parallel to XY through Z.

(b) Locate M, the point of intersection of \(l_{1}\) and \(l_{2}\).

(c) Measure < ZMY.

Explanation

(a), (b)construction

(c) < ZMY = 120°.
