Overview

Learn essential geometric constructions in this comprehensive tutorial covering various techniques including creating line segments, angles, perpendiculars, bisectors, and special triangles. Master the construction of circumcenter, incenter, centroid, orthocenter, parallelograms, and rectangles. Practice drawing tangent lines, parallel lines, and dividing line segments. Explore methods for constructing triangles given different sets of information such as SSS, SAS, and ASA.
