Question

Construct a similar triangle 2/3 to the correspondig sides of given triangle whose sides are 4,5,6 cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first construct △ABC with sides 4cm,5cm,6cm

Steps to draw △ABC

1. Draw base AB of side 4cm.

2. With A as centre , and 5cm as radius, draw an arc.

3. With B as centre , and 6cm as radius ,draw an arc.

4. Let C be the point where two points intersect.

5. Join AC and BC

Thus △ABC is the required triangle

Now, lets make the triangle similar to this named as △PQR  whose sides are

 of the corresponding sides so the sides will become

Steps to draw △PQR

1. Draw base PQ of side  

3 8 cm. 2. With P as centre , and   3 10  cm. as radius, draw an arc.

3. With Q as centre , and 4cm as radius ,draw an arc.

4. Let R be the point where two points intersect.

5. Join PQ and PR

Thus △PQR is the required triangle
