Answer :-

To draw a 50 degree angle with a protactor, proceed as follows :

  • Draw a straight line (i.e. an arm of the angle).

  • Place a dot at one end of the arm. This dot represents the vertex of the angle.

  • Place the centre of the protractor at the vertex dot and the baseline of the protractor along the arm of the angle.

  • Find 50 degree angle on the scale and then mark a small dot at the edge of the protractor.

  • Join the small dot to the vertex with a ruler to form the second arm of the angle.

  • Label the angle with capital letters.

Remember that 50 degree angle cannot be constructed using compass.
