Question

Construct any line segment AB. without measuring it, copy it, and construct another line segment PQ=3AB​

Answer 1

Answer:

1) Draw a line segment AB

2) With center at A and radius AB, draw a circle.

3) Produce BA to intersect the circle at P.

4) With center at B and radius BP, draw a big arc

to intersect PB produced, at D

5) Now, bisect BD at Q.

Thus, PQ = 3 AB.
