Step-by-step explanation:

1.Draw AB=4m.  

2. With any radius draw an arc which cuts AB at M

3. With M as a centre and the same radius, cut the previous arc at N and P.

4. With N and P as centres draw arcs which intersect at L.

5. AL is required perpendicular.

1. Draw AB=5.5m.  

2. With any radius draw an arc which cuts AB at M

3. With M as a centre and the same radius, cut the previous arc at N and P.

4. With N and P as centres draw arcs which intersect at L.

5. AL is required perpendicular.

Draw a line segment AB = 7 cm

(ii) With centre A and radius more than 1/2(AB) draw the arcs on each side of AB.

(iii) With centre B and same radius draw the arcs on each side of AB, which cuts the previously drawn arcs at X and Y.

(iv) Join XY which cuts the line segment AB at O.

Thus XY is the perpendicular bisector of AB.On measuring the two parts, we get AO = OB =2.5 cm
