Question

:. Construct a parallelogram MADE in which
MA = 5 cm, ME = 3.5 cm and M = 60°.

​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Construct the line segment MA of length 5 cm.

2. At M, draw an arc and cut a smaller arc that represents 60°.

3. Extend a line segment from M of length 3.5 cm such that it cuts the arc of 60°. Name the point as E.

4. The opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal. With center as E and radius 5 cm, cut an arc.

5. With center as A and radius 3.5 cm, cut another arc on the previous arc.

6. Name the point as D. Join ED and AD.

7. MADE is the required parallelogram.
