Question

Construct a line segment of length AB= 9 cm. From it cut off AC = 4.2cm. Measure VB and draw a line segment XY such that XY = 2 CB ​

Answer 1

Steps of construction:

1. Draw AB=4 cm.

2. Construct a perpendicular to AB at B and cut off BC=6 cm.

3. With A as center and 6 cm as radius draw an arc.

4. With C as center and 4 cm as radius draw another arc to intersect the D.

5. Join AD and CD.

Hence, ABCD is the required rectangle is the above drawn figure.
