First, draw the given angle with the vertex at A. Then, mark off the length of one side along one ray to get point B, and the other side along the second ray to get point C. Finally, join B and C to complete the triangle.
But I always remember my old uncle, a carpenter, who would scoff at this. He’d say, "Ajeeb, why trust a shaky compass? On my ships, we'd just lay the two planks at that angle and nail the third—the sea doesn't ask for perfect lines." So my lines are always a bit thick, thinking of his rough, sure hands.
