Question

Draw seg AB of length 9 cm and divide it in the ratio 3:2.​

Answer 1

Answer:

5.4 cm and 3.6 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

to divide segment AB of 9cm into 3 : 2

the total parts will be 5

let C be the point which divides AB. (see photo)

now,

AC = 3/5 * 9 = 5.4 cm

CB = 2/5 * 9 = 3.6 cm

So the segment AB divides into 5.4 cm and 3.6 cm

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

IMPORTANT NOTE : THIS SUM EXPLAINED BELOW IS SIMILAR TO WHAT YOU HAVE ASKED ,JUST THEIR IS NUMBERING DIFFERENCE

REST YOU CAN SOLVE BY SAME METHOD

Steps

Step 1: first draw line segment AB=9cm

Step 2: draw a ray AX making an acute angle ∠BAX=60 with AB

Step 3: draw a ray BY parallel to AX by making an acute angle ∠ABY=∠BAX

Step 4: draw 4 arcs namely A1 , A2 , A3 , A4 on ray AX , taking 1cm in your compass .

This means that you have divided the line in 4 equal parts

Step 5: draw 3 arcs namely B1 , B2 , B3 on the ray BY , taking 1 cm on your compass.

This means that you have divided the line in 3 equal parts

Step 6: draw a line segment from A4 to B3 .

THIS IS HOW YOU DIVIDE LINE OF 9CM IN THE RATIO 4:3
