Question

2. Construct a parallelogram LMNO whose diagonals are 8.4 cm and 10 cm. The measure of one of its
sides is given as 6.2 cm.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The given Parallelogram ABCD can be drawn by following the steps.

Step 1: Draw a line AB=4.4cm

Step 2: Draw an arc of 2.8cm from B

Step 3: From A take radius of 3.5cm and cut the arc drawn in step 2 and that point of intersection is O. join OA and OB.

Step 4: Extend AO to C where, OC=AO and also extend BO to D where, OD=OB.

Step 5: Join AD,BC and CD

∴ The constructed parallelogram looks like :
