How is geometry used construction?
Geometry is used to design with the best angles to make structures as strong as possible, using shape, size, position and other properties.
Civil engineers use geometry to design and assemble shapes to construct freeways, tunnels, bridges and more..
What is a construction in geometry terms?
"Construction" in Geometry means to draw shapes, angles or lines accurately.
These constructions use only compass, straightedge (a ruler, but not using the numbers) and a pencil.
This is the "pure" form of geometric construction: no numbers involved.
What is an example of geometry construction?
Suppose we have to construct a triangle with sides of 8cm and 5 cm, and an angle of 60\xb0 between them.
The first step is to draw a rough sketch always.
Draw a line segment AB of length 8 cm.
From A as the point of center, we make an angle of 60\xb0 with a compass..
Construction of angle 75-degree (75\xb0)
Draw a line segment OA.Taking O as center and using a compass draw an arc of some radius, that cuts OA at C.Taking C as center and with the same radius draw another arc, that cuts the first arc at M.Taking M as center and with same radius draw an arc, that cuts the first arc at L.
Here are a few examples of modern buildings that use geometry in their design: Burj Khalifa, Dubai: The world's tallest building features a sleek, triangular shape that narrows as it rises, creating a distinct geometric form that is visible from a distance.
In the modern world, builders use math every day to do their work.
Construction workers add, subtract, divide, multiply, and work with fractions.
They measure the area, volume, length, and width.
How much steel do they need for an office building?

Geometric Constructions - Basics

Copying a segment.

Bisecting an angle.

In this mini-lesson, we will explore the world of geometric constructions in math. You will get to learn about the way to construct perpendicular bisector,

What are constructions in geometry?

Constructions are accurate drawings of shapes, angles and lines in geometry

To do this we need to use a pencil, a ruler (a straight-edge) and compasses

The basic constructions are perpendicular bisector and angle bisector

In an exam you may have to construct and interpret an angle bisector, a line bisector or distance from a point

What are some examples of geometric constructions?

Other geometric constructions include how to draw a regular hexagon

The compass constructions can be applied on the same diagram

For example a 60 60 degree angle can be constructed and used to construct a 30 30 degree angle

Similarly a 90 90 degree angle can be constructed and used to construct a 45 45 degree angle

What tools do you need for geometric construction?

Geometric construction allows you to construct lines, angles, and polygons with the simplest of tools

You will need paper, a sharpened pencil, a straightedge to control your lines, and a drawing compass to swing arcs and scribe circles

Make sure your drawing compass has a sharp needle on one arm and a sharpened pencil on the other arm
