Question

 Construct an equilateral triangle ABC with side 5cm.​

Answer 1

(1)Draw AB as base = 5 cm. (2) Draw perpendicular bisector of AB. (3) Open the compass for 5 cm, keep the pointer at A and draw an arc such that it cuts the bisector.(4) Do the same with point B and wherever those arcs meet name that point C.

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

Equilateral triangle means all the sides of a triangle are equal.

ΔABC has to be constructed with AB=BC=CA=5cm.

Then,

Draw a line segment BC of 5cm.

Taking point B as center, draw an arc of 5cm as radius.

Both arc will intersect at point A.

Join A and B; A and C.

ABC is the required equilateral triangle.
