Question

construct a triangle abc in which bc =7 cm b=75cm and ab+ac=13​

Answer 1

Answer:

ABC is required triangle

Given : Base BC = 7cm, angle B = 75° and sum of two sides AB + AC = 12 cm.

Required : To Construct ∆ABC

STEPS OF CONSTRUCTION :

1. Draw a ray BX and cut off a line segment BC = 7cm; from it.

2. At B; construct angle YBX = 75°

3. With B as centre and radius = 12 cm (because AB + AC = 12cm) draw an arc to meet BY at D.

4. Join CD

5. Draw Perpendicular bisector PQ of CD intersecting BD at A.

6. Join AC

Then ABC is the required triangle.

A lies on perpendicular bisector of CD.

Therefore, AC = AD

=> AB = BD - AD

=> AB = BD - AC

=> AB + AC = BD = 12cm,

Which is true as given.
