Question

draw a line segment of length 11.2 cm and divide it i the ratio 5:8. measure the two parts.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

STEPS OF CONSTRUCTION :

1)Draw a line segment of length 11.2 cm by the help of ruler.

2)Now, Draw a ray AC which was an acute angle .

3)Make 13 equidistant points on the ray AC : A1,A2,A3,A4,A5,.....,A13. by making arcs.

4) Now, Join A5 to point P.

5)Then, Join A13 to point B.

• In this point P will divides AB in the ratio of 5:8.

• The length AP=2.9cm and length PB=4.7cm .
