Answer:

Draw an arc across each leg/ray of the angle.

Explanation:

The first step is to draw an arc across each leg/ray of the angle.

The first step for bisecting an angle is to strike an arc that intersects both the legs/rays of the angle.

After this we place the compass point one of the arcs that crosses a leg and draw ,an arc in the interior of the angle.

We do this with the other side as well.

Lastly, using a ruler, we draw a line from the vertex to the point where the arcs cross. This line is the bisector.
