Question

48. Determine the points which divides a line segment of length 10 cm internally in the
2:3:4.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Draw any line segment say AB = 10 cm 2. At A, draw a ray AY making an acute angle YAB. 3. Using compass mark five points on AY such that AP = PQ = QR = RS = ST. 4. Join TB. 5. Through point R draw a line parallel to TB i.e RL which divides AB in the ratio 3 : 2. On measuring AB we find that AL = 6 cm and LB = 4 cM
