Thanks! Was absent from school today, the presentation my teacher set online had missed a step or two which left me confused. This was extremely helpful 👍
Thanks for that! I miss the visible thumbs up/down system! I learn the most from viewer feedback, it makes content creation more interesting when people can vote!
There is definitely more ways but I imagine doing without extending AB would get more complicated. Definitely worth looking into! That is a great question to ask!
True, if you have two square sides to reference. This method is when you have one side or less of a square reference. Otherwise, you may have a skewed "square." Think of an odd shaped wood piece that you want to cut a square out of with a saw.
The reason to mark out using these techniques over just a ruler is accuracy. I have used them to mark out everything from small, accurate jewelry to large, accurate orchard blocks. A ruler can't match the accuracy in either case.
I am glad the video helped! This topic in geometry is tricky to learn first time around. It will make more sense once you learn triangle proofs and properties of quadrilaterals.
@@vinteachesmath Is it free software? I am tring to download this software Iast 10 days but also show msg The installation didn't succeed (Exist code 1635). Start the installation again. I want your help for installation this software. Can you share the link and steps or guidline for installation this software. So pl send guidline on my email bhagwanpandekar@gmail.com waiting for your best response...
The copying a line segment and perpendicular bisector construction can be used for a lot of other constructions. There are constructions out there for 9 sided figures as well... Those have serious magic.
Why I have to do all of this just for a stupid square I don't know but thank you anyways for helping me do my geometry which is for some reason making shapes more complicated than they need to be. I hate it here.
I have to respectfully disagree with your teacher. In the video, I construct a right angle at point B, then construct a quadrilateral with 4 congruent sides. A quadrilateral with 4 congruent sides is a rhombus, and a rhombus with a right angle is a square.
