[4 marks]4.
Plot the graph of y=2x for x from 0 to 5 on the grid.
[2 marks]5.
Construct an angle of 45°, then bisect it accurately with a compass. Label the bisector.
[3 marks]6.
Construct a triangle with sides 6 cm, 8 cm, and 10 cm. Bisect the largest angle.
[4 marks]7.
Construct an inscribed circle in a triangle, using compass and straightedge, and indicate the incenter.
[4 marks]8.
Identify and correct this common mistake: attempting to bisect an angle by drawing arcs of different radii from the vertex.
[2 marks]9.
Given two intersecting lines, construct their angle bisectors and mark the incenter of the triangle formed.
[5 marks]10.
Construct a 70° angle and bisect it. Then, measure the two resulting angles to verify they are equal.
[3 marks]11.
Challenge: Construct an angle of 90°, bisect it, then extend the bisector to meet a line parallel to one side of the angle. Describe the steps.
