construct a line segment AB=8.2cm and from it cut off a segment AC of length 3.7cm.Measure the remaining segment
Answers
Given : a line segment AB=8.2cm segment AC of length 3.7cm
To Find : Remaining Segment
Solution:
Step 1 : Take a point A
Step 2 : Draw a ray AX
Step 3 : Using compass width = 8.2 cm and taking A as center , cut ray AX at B
AB = 8.2 cm
Step 4 : Using compass width = 3.7 cm and taking A as center , cut ray AX at C
AC = 3.7
Step 5 : Put compass at C open till point B and then using ruler check of compass width to find length of remaining segment
length of remaining segment= 4.5 cm
Using segment addition postulate
AB = AC + CB
CB is remaining segment
8.2 = 3.7 + CB
=> CB = 8.2 - 3.7
=> CB = 4.5 cm
length of remaining segment= 4.5 cm
