Question

Divide a line 11.6cm into the ratio 3:7.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step 1: Draw a line segment PQ of length 11 cm using a ruler.

Step 2: Draw an acute ∠CQP on one side of line PQ.

Step 3: Mark points Q1,Q2,Q3 on ray QC such that QQ1=Q1Q2=Q2Q3.

Step 4: Join Q3 to P.

Step 5: Draw lines Q1S and Q2R parallel to Q3P and let them intersect PQ in points S and R respectively.

Points R and S divide the segment PQ in 3 equal parts.
