Question

Construct a quadrilateral ABCD, in which AB = 5.2 cm, BC = 5.1 cm, CD = 5.4 cm, DA = 4.3 cm and AC = 7.9 cm. ​

Answer 1

The given Quadrilateral ABCD can be drawn by following the steps.

Step 1: Draw a line AB=4.2cm

Step 2: With A as the centre and radius =8cm draw an arc.

Step 3: with B as the centre and radius =6cm draw another arc cutting previous arc. Label this point as C

Step 4: Join BC

Step 5: With A as the centre and radius =5cm draw an arc.

Step 6: with C as the centre and radius =5.2cm draw another arc cutting previous arc. label this point as D

Step 7: join CD and AD.

∴ The constructed quadrilateral looks like:

$\large{\boxed{\boxed{\bf{---------------}}}}$

Answer 2

Answer:

Draw a line AB=4.2cm

With A as the center and radius =8cm draw an arc.

with B as the center and radius =6cm draw another arc cutting previous arc. Label this point as C

Join BC

With A as the center and radius =5cm draw an arc.

with C as the center and radius =5.2cm draw another arc cutting previous arc. label this point as D

join CD and AD.
