Question

5. Mark points X, Y, Z and W such that no three of them are collinear. Draw
line segments by joining all the possible pairs of points.

6. Draw a line segment of length 6.7 cm. Mark points A. B and C on the line segment.​

Answer 1

Answer:

1) Steps of construction:

1. Draw line segment AB = 5.3 cm.

2. With A as centre and radius more than half of AB, mark two arcs, one above and other below the line AB.

3. With B as centre and same radius, draw two arcs cutting the previous drawn arcs and name the point of intersection as X and Y.

4. Join XY and name the point where this line cuts AB as point P.

XY is the perpendicular bisector of AB.

Step-by-step explanation:

2) 6.7 cm

Steps of construction:

1. Draw line segment CD = 6.7 cm.

2. With C as centre and radius more than half of CD, mark two arcs, one above and other below the line CD.

3. With D as centre and same radius, draw two arcs cutting the previous drawn arcs and name the point of intersection as A and B.

4. Join AB and name the point where this line cuts CD as point Q.

AB is the perpendicular bisector of CD.
