Question

3. Draw a right triangle in which sides (other than hypotenuse) are of lengths 8 cm and 6 cm. Then construct another triangle whose sides are 3/4 times the corresponding sides of the first triangle.

Answer 1

Answer==>>


Scale factor =3/4

length of two sides = 8 cm and 6 cm

Answer 2

9 Steps of Construction of Similar Triangles

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps of constructions :  

1. A line segment BC of length 8 cm is drawn initially.  

2. Draw line segment BX making an angle of 90º at the point B of BC.  

3. From B mark an arc on BX at a distance of 6 cm, Let it is A.  

4. Join A to C.  

5. Making an acute angle draw a line segment BY from B.

6. Mark $B_1, B_2, B_3, B_4$ on BX such that $BB_1 = B_1B_2 = B_2B_3 = B_3B_4$.  

7. Join $B_4$ to C.  

8. Draw a line segment $B_3C'$ || $B_4C$ to meet BC at C'.  

9. Draw line segment CA' || CA to meet AB at A' A'BC' is the required triangle.hypotenuse-are-8-cm-and-6-cm

A'BC' is the required triangle.
