Question

draw a line segment ab of length 5 cm with a as Centre draw a circle of radius 3 cm and B as Centre draw a circle of radius 2 cm state which one of the following three conditions you observe intersect at two points that just at one point Do not intersect at all​

Answer 1

Working steps to draw circle of radius 4 cm passing through A & B (AB=5 cm)

Draw a straight line AB of length 5 cm & draw its perpendicular bisector.

Draw an arc of length 4 cm to intersect perpendicular bisector. The point of intersection will be the center of circle.

Draw the circle of radius 4 cm having center at the point point of intersection.

In second question, the circle of radius 2 cm can have maximum length of chord equal to its diameter 4 cm. So the circle of radius 2 cm can’t be drawn which passes through the points A & B such that AB=5 cm.
