Given: Sides of triangle Δ ABC are AC = 6 cm , CB = 8 cm and AB = 10 cm.
To construct: A similar triangle AB'C' with sides of ratio 3 : 5
First we construct ΔABC then ΔAB'C'
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Draw a line segment AB of length 10 cm
Step 2: With A as center, draw an arc of radius 6 cm above Point A
Step 3: With B as center, draw an arc of radius 8 cm such that it intersect arc of step 2. Point of intersect of both arc is point C.
Step 4: Join AC & CB.
Step 5: Draw any arc AX making an acute angle with side AB on the side opposite to the vertex C.
Step 6: Locate 5 ( greater of 3 & 5 in 3 : 5 ) points on AX so that
.
Step 7: Join and draw a line through
( the 3rd point, 3 being smaller of 3 & 5 ) parallel to
to intersect AB at B'.
Step 8: Draw a line through B' parallel to line CB to intersect AC at C'.
Thus ΔAB'C' is the required triangle
