Steps:
Draw a straight line AOA'.
Construct a perpendicular OC to line AOA' at O. Then ∠AOC = 90°.
Bisect ∠A'OC by drawing two equal arcs from centre O, cutting line OA' at point D and OC at point E. Now, from points D and E draw two arcs of equal length intersecting each other at point B. Join OB and OB is the bisector of ∠A'OC. Then ∠COB = 45°.
Therefore, ∠AOB = ∠AOC + ∠COB = 90° + 45° = 135°.
Now bisect ∠AOB. With O as centre, draw two equal arcs that cut OA at point P and OB at point Q.
With P and Q as centres and equal radii , draw two arcs cutting each other at R.
Join OR and produce it to form ray OR.

Then OR is the bisector of ∠AOB.
On measuring one of the parts with a protractor, we find:
∠AOR = 67.5° (and ∠ROB = 67.5°).
Hence, ray OR bisects ∠AOB into two equal parts of 67.5° each.
