Draw a line PQ parallel
to line RS passing through
a point M outside it.
Using ruler and compus
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation: To draw a parallel line to PQ through M follow the below procedure:
(1) Draw a line PQ of any length.
( 2)Now mark a point M outside the line PQ.
(3) Now make a line joining M and intersecting PQ.
(4) Now take any length in the compass and point the compass at the intersection of line through M and line PQ and mark an arc starting from PQ and the line through M.
(5) Similarly , with the same length in the compass , place the compass at M and mark a similar arc as the above arc.
(6) Now place the compass on the intersection of line through M and measure the length where the arc intersects the line PQ.
(7) Now with the same length place the compass on the intersection of arc drawn from M and the line and mark an arc that intersects the arc as shown in figure.
(8) Now join the points M and the intersection of arc to obtain the parallel line through M.
