Question

Draw a line segment PQ = 7cm. Draw the perpendicular bisector of PQ.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Steps of construction:

Step I - Draw a line segment AB = 7 cm with the help ruler.

Step II - with vertex A, by using compass take more than half of AB and draw arcs, one each side of AB.

Step III - with vertex B, by using compass with same length, cut the previous arcs at X and Y respectively.

Step IV - with help of ruler join the point X and Y Thus XY is the perpendicular bisector of line AB.
