Question

Draw a line segment of length 8 cm and divide it in the ratio 3 : 2. Measure the two parts

Answer 1

${\huge{\boxed{\mathcal{\red{Answer}}}}}$

One points measure - 3.2cm

Other part measure - 8cm

$\huge \mathfrak \pink{Explanation}$

➻Sum of ratio - 5

➻Measure of the line

➻ 8cm ÷ 5 = 1.6cm

➻ ratio of part is 2:5

➻ measure of one part → 1.6cm × 2 = 3.2cm

➻ measure of other part → 1.6cm × 3 = 4.8cm

hope it helps

STEPS OF CONSTRUCTION:

1.Draw line segment of length AB=8cm.

2. Draw any Ray AX making acute ∠BAX with AB

3. Draw a parallel to BY parallel to AX by making∠ABY=∠BAX.

4. Make 3 points A
