Question

construt a quadrilateral abcd given that ab = 3.5 cm, bc =5 cm, cd = 4.5 cm, ac = 5 cm and bd = 6 cm

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps of Construction:

(i) Construct a line segment AB = 3.5 cm.

(ii) Taking A as centre and 4 cm radius construct and arc and with B as centre and 5.4 cm construct an arc which meets the previous arc at the point D.

Now join AD and BD.

(iii) Taking B as centre and 5 cm radius, construct an arc

Taking D as centre and 5.6 cm radius, construct an arc which meets the previous arc at the point C.

(iv) Join BC and CD.

Hence, ABCD is the required quadrilateral.
