Question

Draw a parallelogram ABCD in which AB=6.5cm,AD=4.8cm and BAD=70° measure it's diagonals​

Answer 1

Since ABCD is a parallelogram

∴AB=CD=6.5 cm and

AD=BC=4.8 cm

Given ∠BAD=70°

Steps of construction:

1) Draw AD such that AD=4.8 cm

2) Make an angle measuring 70° at A and cut an arc of 6.5 cm and name it as B

3) From B cut an arc of 4.8 cm and 6.5 cm from D, name it as C

4) Join AB,BC and CD

5) By measuring the diagonals AC and BD with a ruler, we get AC=9.2 cm and BD=6.6 cm
