Making a Protractor
1. Cut out a circular shape using a bangle or take a circular sheet of
about the same size.
2. Fold it twice to get a shape as shown. This is called a quadrant.
3. Open it out. You will find a semi-circle with a fold in the middle.
Mark 90° on the fold.
4. Fold the semicircle to reach the quadrant. Now fold the quadrant
once more as shown. The angle is half of 90° i.e. 45°.
5. Open it out now. Two folds appear on each side. What is the angle
upto the first new line? Write 45° on the first fold to the left of the
base line.
6. The fold on the other side would be 90° + 45° = 135°
7. Fold the paper again upto 45° (half of the quadrant). Now make
half of this. The first fold to the left of the base line now is half of
45° i.e. 22½°. The angle on the left of 135° would be 157½°.
You have got a ready device to measure angles. This is an approximate
protractor.
