Question

Draw a line segment XY = 7cm . Take a point A outside XY. Draw a line parallel to XY and passing through A. Find the distance between the parallel lines.​

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Draw a line XY of 7cm and then plot a point A which is outside the line XY.

2. From the point A, draw another line which is perpendicular to XY.

3. Now with A as centre, draw an arc on XY as shown in figure.

4. Now by keeping a point on the arc draw another arc as shown fig. and repeat the procedure from another arc also.

5. Now we will get one intersection point, now draw a line parallel to XY through that intersection point.
