Answer 1

Answer:

Steps :

Step 1 : Draw a line segment AB = 6cm.

Step 2 : Draw rays AQ and BP parallel to each other and on opposite side of AB.

Step 3 : Mark 4+3 = 7 points on AQ and 7 on BP at equal distances, namely A1, A2, ___ A7 on AQ and B1,B2,___B7 on BP.

Step 4 : Join A7 to B and B7 to A.

Step 5 : Join A4 to B3 intersecting AB at C.

Answer 2
