Question

Construct a right-angled isosceles triangle XYZ, right angled at Y, whose two equal sides are 5.5 cms. Write steps of construction and Construct with compass​

Answer 1

Answer:

Steps to draw an isosceles triangle

Draw a line YZ=5cm

On the point Y, construct an angle of 90o by using compass.

Extend the line where you constructed 90o

Now, take your compass, measure 5cm, place it on Y and cut an arc where 90o is drawn.

The point where it touches the line is X.

Join XZ

△XYZ is the required triangle.
