Geometrical constructions — practice question

The diagram depicts triangle $ABC$.
(a)[1]

Measure the angle $\angle ABC$.

(b)[2]

Using the diagram, construct the locus of points within triangle $ABC$ that are (i) $4\text{ cm}$ from $B$, (ii) $2\text{ cm}$ from $AC$.

(c)[1]

Point $P$ lies $4\text{ cm}$ from $B$, $2\text{ cm}$ from $AC$, and is closer to $A$ than to $C$. Mark $P$ on the diagram and determine the length of $AP$.
