Question

Construct an isosceles triangle abc in which base =4 cm, sum of the perpendicular from a to bc and side ab =6.5 cm

Answer 1

draw the base 4cm
now,
at point b
take compass at 6.5cm by the help of scale
at point c
take compass at 6.5cm by the help of scale
now join the abc

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: In △ABC, BC = 4 cm and sum of the perpendicular from A to BC and side AB = 6.5 cm.

Required : To construct ΔABC.

Steps of construction :  

1.Draw any line segment BC = 4 cm.

2.Draw ‘p’ the perpendicular bisector of BC and let it intersect BC in R

3.Cut off PQ = 6.5 cm.

4.Join QB.

5.Draw the perpendicular bisector of BQ and let it intersect PQ in A.

6. Join AB and AC. Thus, ΔABC is the required triangle.
