Question

Draw a segment of length 4.8 cm
Construct its perpendicular bisector​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Steps of Construction:

1. Construct a line segment PQ=4.8cm.

2. Taking P as center and radius equal than half of PQ, construct arc on both the PQ.

3. TAking Q as center and the same radius as taken in step 2, construct arcs on both sides of PQ.

4. Let the arcs intersect each other at point A and B

5. Now join A and B.

6. The line AB cuts the line segment PQ at the point O. Here OP=OQ and ∠AOQ=90

o

Then the line AB is perpendicular bisector of PQ.
