Construct a triangle of sides 4 cm, 5 cm and 6 cm and then a triangle similar to it whose
sides are 2/3
of the corresponding sides of the first triangle.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
draw 5 centimetres line draw an arc of 6 cm and 4 cm line and join the arces
Answer:-
★ STEPS OF CONSTRUCTION:-
→ Draw a line segment AB where AB = 4 cm.
→ Take the point A as centre and draw an arc of radius 5 cm.
→ Similarly, take the point B as its centre, and draw an arc of radius 6 cm .
→ The arcs drawn will intersect each other at point C.
→ Draw a ray AX which makes an acute angle with the line segment AB on the opposite side of vertex C.
→ Now, locate 3 points such as A1, A2, A3 on line AX such that it becomes AA¹= A¹A² = A²A³.
→ Join the point BA³ and draw a line through A² which is parallel to the line BA³ that intersect AB at point B’.
→ Therefore, ΔAB'C' is the required triangle.
