Construction Steps:

1. Draw a Line segment AB.

2. Draw a perpendicular to AB at point A[ right angle]

3. Now using a compass, From point A cut an arc of length 4cm.  

4. Let it intersect at point C.

5. Again at Point B ,draw a right angle in same direction as A.

6. Now using compass at point B, cut an arc of length 4 CM.  

7. Let it intersect at point D.

8. Join CD.

Hence CD ║AB
