Geometrical constructions
1. Use a ruler to measure and draw straight lines and angles. Note that constructing perpendicular bisectors and angle bisectors is not necessary. 2. Create a triangle when given the lengths of all sides, using only a ruler and compass. Ensure that construction arcs are included. 3. Draw, utilize, and interpret nets, such as those for cubes, cuboids, prisms, and pyramids, and apply measurements from these nets to find volumes and surface areas.
