Question

Construct the pair of tangent with side for 5-6 in construct another triangle when sides are 5 ratio 3 of the corresponding sides of the first triangle

Answer 1

Answer:

Steps of Construction

Step 1. Draw a line segment QR = 7 cm.

Step 2. With Q as centre and radius 6 cm, draw an arc.

Step 3. With R as centre and radius 8 cm, draw an arc cutting the previous arc at P.

Step 4. Join PQ and PR. Thus, ∆PQR is the required triangle.

Step 5. Below QR, draw an acuStep 5. Below QR, draw an acute angle ∠RQX.

Step 6. Along QX, mark five points R1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 such that QR1 = R1R2 = R2R3 = R3R4 = R4R5.

Step 7. Join RR5.

Step 8. From R4, draw R4R' || RR5 meeting QR at R'.

Step 9. From R', draw P'R' || PR meetin
