Question

Draw a line segment of length 8 cm divided it in the ratio 3:4.

Answer 1

STEPS OF CONSTRUCTION:

1.Draw line segment of length AB = 8 cm.
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 A1, A2 ,A3 on AX & 4 points B1,B2,B3 , B4 on BY such that
AC1 = A1A2= A2A3
= BB1 = B1B2 = B2B3 = B3B4

5.Join A3 B4. Then it intersect AB at a point P.Thus P is the point of dividing AB internally in the ratio 3 : 4.

HOPE THIS WILL HELP YOU...

Answer 2

Hey !!

STEP OF CONSTRUCTION ;-

↪ Draw a line segment AB of 8 cm.
↪ Draw an acute angle BAX.
↪ Take arc A1, A2, A3 ,A4, A5, A6, A7 on ray AX. Such that AA1 = A1A2 = A2A3 = A3A4 = A4A5 = A5A6 = A6A7.
↪ Joint B and A7.
↪ Draw a line CA3 parallel to BA7.
↪ Hence we get AC : CB = 3 : 4.
