On your paper, draw two angles roughly like those shown. Then for Exercise construct an angle having the indicated measure.

Describe how you would construct each of the following:

The altitude of that contain vertex.
These exploratory exercises can be done using a computer with a program that draws and measures geometric figures.
2. a. Draw any acute Draw the perpendicular bisector of each side of the triangle. They should intersect in one point. Measure the distance from this point of intersection to each of the vertices of the triangle. What do you notice?
b. repeat using an obtuse triangle and a right triangle. Is the same result true for these triangles as well?
c. In a right triangle, the perpendicular bisectors of the sides intersect in what point?
Draw any obtuse . Use the method to construct a triangle congruent to .
Describe how you would construct each of the following:

A square whose perimeter equals .
