2.
Construct a parallelogram ABCD in which AB=5.3cm BC = 4.6cm and AC = 7.5cm.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we draw a rough sketch of a quadrilateral ABCD and write down its dimensions as shown. We may divide it into two conveniently constructible Δs ABC and ACD.

               

           Steps of construction:

           1.   Draw AC = 7 cm.            2.   With A as centre and radius 4.5 cm, draw an arc (below AC).            3.   With C as centre and radius 5.5 cm, draw another arc cutting the previous arc at B.

               

           4.   Join AB and BC            5.   With A as centre and radius 6 cm, draw an arc (above AC).            6.   With C as centre and radius 4 cm, draw another arc cutting the previous arc and D.            7.   Join AD = CD.            Then, ABCD is the required quadrilateral.
