Draw a line segment of length 12.8 cm. Using compasses, divide it into four equal parts.
Verify by actual measurement.
Step I: Draw a line segment AB= 12.8 cm
Step II : With centre A and B and radius more than half of AB, draw two arcs which
meet each other at D and E.
Step III : Join D and E which meets ABat C which is the midpoint of AB.
Step IV : With centre A and C and radius more than half of AC, draw two arcs which
meet each other at F and G.
Step V: Join F and G which meets AC at H which is the midpoint of AC .
Step VI : With centre C and B and radius more than half of CB, draw two arcs which
meet each other at J and K.
Step VII : Join J and K which meets

Answer 1

Step VII : Join J and K which meets
