Answer 1

$\huge\boxed{\fcolorbox{green}{white}{answer☆}}$

⇒  We know that all the sides of square are equal.

⇒  All four angles are 90∘

⇒  And both the diagonals of square are equal and perpendiculary bisect each other.

⇒  By using all these properties we will construct a square.

⇒  We have given diagonal of square 5cm.

⇒  Draw a line segment AC=5cm.

⇒  Draw a perpendicular line through mid-point of AC.

⇒  Cut off OB=2.5cm and OD=2.5cm.

⇒  Join AB,BC,CD and AD.

⇒  Measure sides of square which is AB,BC,CD and AD.

⇒  l(AB)=l(BC)=l(CD)=l(AD)=3.5cm
