Question

Draw a seg PQ of 8 cm and bisect it

Answer 1

Steps of Construction : 1. With P and Q as centers, draw arcs on both sides of PQ with equal radii. The radius should be more than half the length of PQ. 2. Let these arcs cut each other at points R and RS 3. Join RS which cuts PQ at D. Then RS = PQ Also ∠POR = 90°. Hence, the line segment RS is the perpendicular bisector of PQ as it bisects PQ at P and is also perpendicular to PQ. On measuring the lengths of PR = 4cm, QR = 4 cm Since PR = QR, both are 4cm each ∴PR = QR.

Answer 2

Answer:

First

Step-by-step explanation:

First make a line of 8cm.

Then name it p and q.

Then took a compass along a pencil then took the point of compass on p .

And took more than half radius. And make an arc above and below of the pq line . then again took arc on q and make above and below the line segment p and q.

Hence your pq line is bisect
