Question

Construct a rectangle PQRS. * In which Q R = 3.5cm & an di agonal is 5.5cm write the steps of construction​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

P                                              S

DI =         3.5m=cm

Q               5.5cm                     R

Now the QSR will form a Rght angled triangle

Now we know that SR^2 + RQ^2 = QS^2 (Pythogoraous therom)

So it will be SR^2 + 30.25 =  12.25

SR^2 = Not possible (sorry if this is wrong)

Edit : I re-did it and I am preety sure this is the answer:

Steps of construction:

a)Draw QR =3.5cm.

b)Draw XQR =90° and YRQ=90°.  

c)With R as centre and radius 5.5cm draw an arc to cut QX at P.

d)With Q as centre and radius 5.5cm, draw an arc to cut RY at S.

e)Join PS.

PQRS is the required rectangle.
