Question

Draw a right triangle in which the sides other than hypotenuse are of length 8 cm and 6 cm.

Answer 1

Answer:

Steps of constructions : 1. Draw a line segment BC = 8 cm. 2. Draw line segment BX making an angle of 90º at the point B of BC. 3. From B mark an arc on BX at a distance of 6 cm, Let it is A. 4. Join A to C. 5. Making an acute angle draw a line segment BY from B. 6. Mark B1, B2, B3, B4 on BX such that BB1 = B1B2 = B2B3 = B3B4. 7. Join B4 to C. 8. Draw a line segment B3C' || to B4C to meet BC at C'. 9. Draw line segment CA' || to CA to meet AB at A' A'BC' is the required

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

base = 8cm

side = 6cm

hyp= by pythogerous theorem

(hyp)²2= (base)²  +  (side)²

(hyp)²= 64+36

(hyp)²=100

hpy=√100

hpy = 10cm

∴ use the  highlighted values to construct a triangle
