Answer:
Answer
(1) Mark any point C on the sheet.
(2) By adjusting the compasses up to 3.4cm and by putting the pointer of the compasses at point C, turn the compasses slowly to draw the circle. It is the required circle of 3.4cm radius.
(3) Mark any diameter
AB
in the circle.
(4) Now, taking A and B as centre, draw arcs on both sides of
AB
taking radius more than
AB
. Let these intersect each other at D and E.
(5) Join DE, which is the perpendicular bisector of AB.
It can be observed that
DE
is passing through the centre C of the circle.
