How to Bisect a Reflex Angle

Before we are going to see how to bisect a reflex angle we start with what is angle.  Angle is made with the turn that takes place between two straight lines which are formed from the same end point where the end point is also known as vertex. Reflex angle is the angle formed between the angles of 180 degree to 360 degree.

How to bisect a reflex angle, the word bisects means nothing but cutting it into two or splitting into two. Reflex angle bisector is the bisector that bisects the reflex angle. A bisector angle is a line that passes through the vertex of the reflex angle. How to bisect a reflex angle is followed by some certain steps.

Steps about how to bisect a reflex angle:

To bisect a reflex angle:

First draw a line and mark the given points  assume A,B.
By using the protector mark the reflection angle and draw the reflection angle and let the point be C.
Now AB and AC are the two lines with a same midpoint A.
Now by using campus make an arc with any radius which cuts both lines AB and AC.
Let the intersection point on line AB will be as D and on line AC be as E.
Take more than an half of the line as radius and in the campus and by keeping D and as midpoint make an arc. Similarly Keep E as midpoint and make an arc so that it cut the arc and the meeting point be F.
Now draw a line which joins AF.
Now AF will be the bisector of the given reflex angle.

These are the steps to be followed to bisect a reflex angle. The angle that is formed due to bisector in the reflex angle will be always an obtuse angle.

Example of how to bisect a reflex angle:

Draw a bisector of the reflex angle of 280 degree.

Solution:

Draw the line AB.

line

Keeping A as centre the angle of point 280 is marked and the line is drawn which makes a reflex angle of 280 degree which makes a line AC.

Here DE is an arc made by a as centre.

280 reflex angle bisect

More than half is taken as radius and two arcs are made with D and E as centre.The point F is plotted and a line is joined from A to F. The angle AF is the bisector of the reflection angle 280 degree.
