Question

Draw line segment of length 8.1 cm and divide it in the ratio of 5 is to 4 then find the divided two parts​

Answer 1

$AC:BC=5:4$ as shown in the figure.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Draw line segment of length $8.1\ cm$ and divide it in the ratio $5:4$

Following steps:

• Draw a line segments $AB=8.1\ cm$ using scale.
• Draw any angle below the point $A$ like $\angle BAX=\theta$
• Divide the line $AX$ into nine equal parts $A_{1},A_{2},.........,A_{8},X$
• Join $BX$
• Draw a parallel line with $BX$ through point $A_{5}$ which intersect the line $AB$ at $C$
• $AC$ and $BC$ are the two divide parts.

Hence, $AC:BC=5:4$ as shown in the figure.
