Fold the paper through vertex A so that the rays lie on top of each

other.

Step-by-step explanation:

The meaning of bisect is dividing into two. So surely folding the paper through the vertex would help to bisect the angle.

Follow the below steps to know better:

  • Consider the angle ABC where B is the midpoint.
  • Keep the compass at angle vertex B and adjust wide setting
  • Draw the arc across every leg of the angle
  • Now keep the compass on the point drawn on each leg, and try drawing an arc in the interior of the angle.
  • Draw a line through the vertex to the point where the arcs cross (use ruler)
