Answer 1

Answer:

• draw a line segment AB of 8cm
• draw a ray AX making a acute angle <BAX=60 degree with AB
• draw a ray BY parallel to AX by making a acute angle <ABY=<BAX
• mark four points A1,A2,A3,A4 on AX and five points b1,b2,b3,b4,b5 on BY in such way that AA1=A1,A2 = A2,A3 = A3,A4
• join A4,B5
• let 1 intersect AB at point P such that p divide in 4:5
