Answer:

When you are constructing, you use tools like a compass, ruler, and protractor vs when you draw you don't use a tool, you free hand it.

Explanation:

A geometric construction is a set of steps to create geometric figures using just a straightedge and a compass without using formal measurements; whereas a drawing can use any tool.

Answer:

Constructing geometric figures means with the help of a compass, protractor and a scale with accurate measurement.

Drawing may just be drawing rough figures with no accurate measurement
