Question

Construct a triangle of sides 5 cm, 6 cm and 7 cm, then construct a
2/3
triangle similar to it, whose sides are Ź of the corresponding sides
of the first triangle.​

Answer 1

Answer:

pls noted

Step-by-step explanation:

Constructing the first triangle:

Step 1: Draw base AB of length 7 cm

Step 2: Place a compass on A and draw an arc of radius 5 cm

Step 3: Place the compass on B and draw an arc of radius 6 cm such that it intersects the arc drawn in step 2.

Step 4: Mark the intersection of the two arcs as C and join A−C and B−C

△ABC is the given triangle.

Let △PAQ be the required triangle.

Step 1: Draw a ray AX from point A on the opposite side of C, making an acute angle with AB.

Step 2: Mark 7 equidistant points A
