Question

Construct a parallelogram ABCD so that AB=4.5cm,BC=3.7cm and height=2.5cm

Answer 1

$ABCD$ is the required parallelogram.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Construct a parallelogram $ABCD$ so that $AB=4.5\ cm,BC=3.7\ cm\ and\ height=2.5\ cm$

Following steps:

• Draw a line segments $AB=4.5\ cm$ using scale.
• From point $A$, draw a perpendicular line using protector like $AX\perp AB$
• $A$ is center and $2.5\ cm$ as radius draw an arc on line $AX$ like $AL=2.5\ cm$
• Through point $L$, draw parallel line with $AB$ like $YZ\parallel AB$
• $B$ as a center and $3.7\ cm$ as radius draw an arc on line $YZ$ which is known as $C$
• Draw a line $AD$ with $BC$ which meet the line $YZ$ at $D$

Now, $ABCD$ is the required parallelogram.
