Construction at a glance
Constructions are the accurate drawing of lines, angles and shapes using a ruler, protractor and compass. Some of the common constructions that we need to know are angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors of line segments and perpendiculars at/to a point. We also need to be able to construct a triangle given any of the information ASA (angle side angle), SAS, or SSS – this could include an equilateral triangle. Â
There are specific methods for each type of construction and it is important that the construction lines are left visible when constructions are performed so that the method is clear. Constructions are useful for creating accurate drawings as well as when working with loci.
Looking forward, students can then progress to additional geometry worksheets, for example a 3D shapes worksheet or area of a triangle worksheet.
For more teaching and learning support on Geometry our GCSE maths lessons provide step by step support for all GCSE maths concepts.
