Question

Draw a line segment AB of length 7.1cm. Take any point P on it and through P, draw a perpendicular to AB.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps of construction :

1) Draw a line segment AB = 7 cm by using a graduated ruler.

2) With A as centre and radius more than half of AB, draw arcs, one on each side of AB.

3) With B as centre and the same radius as in step 2, draw arcs cutting the arcs drawn in step 2 at E and F respectively.

4) Draw the line segment with E and F as end-points. Suppose it meets AB at P. Then, P bisects the line segment AB.

By measuring, AP=MP = 3.5 cm
