Question

construct a quadrilateral ABCD, given that

AB = 4 cm BC = 4cm, CD =4.5 DA = 5 cm and diagonal BD = 5.5 cm. Also, measure the length of the other diagonal AC​

Answer 1

Answer:

Steps of construction are given below :

⇒ Draw line segment BC of length 4.5cm.

⇒ With C as a center and radius CD = 5cm draw an arc.

⇒ With B as a center and radius BD = 7cm draw an arc intersecting the previous arc at D.

⇒ Again with C as the center and 5.5cm as a radius draw an arc.

⇒ Then with D as the center and 5.5cm as radius, draw an arc intersecting the point at A.

⇒ Join AB, AD, CD, BD, and AC.

Thus, ABCD is a required quadrilateral.
