Question

Draw square root spiral taking 1 unit= 2cm.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Starting with point O, draw a line segment OP

Starting with point O, draw a line segment OP 1

Starting with point O, draw a line segment OP 1

Starting with point O, draw a line segment OP 1 of unit length.

Starting with point O, draw a line segment OP 1 of unit length.Now draw a line sesegmen

1

1 again of unit length.

1 again of unit length.Here always we need to keep in mind that the measure of the line segment would always be a constant, i.e., 1 unit.

1 again of unit length.Here always we need to keep in mind that the measure of the line segment would always be a constant, i.e., 1 unit.Now again daw a line segment P

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Draw a line segment PQ of length 1 unit by taking 2 cm as 1 unit

2. Construct a line QX perpendicular to the line segment PQ, by using compasses

or a set square.

3. From Q, draw an arc of 1 unit, which cut QX at C(say).

4. Join PC.

5. Taking PC as base, draw a perpendicular CY to PC, by using compasses or a

set square.

6. From C, draw an arc of 1 unit, which cut CY at D (say).

7. Join PD.

8. Taking PD as base, draw a perpendicular DZ to PD, by using compasses or a

set square.

9. From D, draw an arc of 1 unit, which cut DZ at E (say).

10.Join PE.

Keep repeating the above process for sufficient number of times. Then, the figure so

obtained is called a ‘square root spiral’.
