Question

AB = 35 cm, AD =4 cm, BD =5 cm, DC = 3 cm and AC = 45 cm.
Construct the quadrilateral ABCD ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Firstly we draw a rough sketch of quadrilateral ABCD and write down its dimensions as shown in attachment figure.

Steps of Construction:

Step 1. Draw AB = 4 cm

Step 2. With B as center and radius equal to 4 cm, draw an arc.  

Step 3. With A as center and radius equal to 2.5 cm, draw another arc, cutting the previous arc at D.

Step 4. Join AD and BD.

Step 5. With B as center and radius equal to 3 cm, draw an arc.

Step 6. with A as center and radius equal to 4.5 cm, draw another arc, cutting the previous arc at C.

Step 7. Join AC and CD.

Then, ABCD is the required quadrilateral.
