Question

Draw a line segment PQ = 5.8cm and construct its perpendicular bisector using ruler and compasses.

Answer 1

Answer:

perpendicular bisector of PQ is constructed

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1 : Draw line segment PQ = 5.8 cm using ruler

Step 2 : Using compass Draw two arcs of radius more than half length segment from point P both sides of line segment

Step 3 : Keeping the compass opened same , now from point Q draw two arcs cutting Earlier arc at point A & B

Step 4 : Join AB

AB is perpendicular bisector of PQ

perpendicular bisector of PQ is constructed
