draw towo line segment AB and CD of 4.5 cm and 3.2 cm .draw line segment equal in length of their sum
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using compass and ruler, we construct two segments AB and CD of lengths 4.3 cm and 3.2 cm, respectively.
Draw a line l and mark a point P on it.
Take a compass and place its metal point at A and adjust it, such that the pencil point reaches point B.
Take the compass to line l, such that its metal point is on P.
Mark a small mark at Q on the line l corresponding to the pencil point of the compass.
Now, reset the compass, such that its metal and pencil points are on C and D, respectively.
Take the compass again to line l, such that its metal point is on Q and the pencil point makes a small mark at point R, which opposite to point P on line l.
PR is the required segment, whose length is equal to the sum of the lengths of these segments.
Answer: Measure 7.7 cm length on compass and line segment can be drawn.
Step-by-step explanation:
Follow the following instructions to draw the line segment equal to the sum of 4.5 cm and 3.2 cm :
- Calculate the sum of 4.5 cm and 3.2 cm = 7.7 cm
- Open the compass on scale , measuring 7.7 cm of length
- Draw a straight line of random length
- Give name to its one end as P
- Put compass tip on that point P and mark an arc on line with the help of measurement taken on compass
- Remove extra part of line (if drawn previously)
- Mark that arc point as Q
- Mark PQ line segment as) 7.7 cm (measurement on that line)
Thus, with the help of compass , line segment of required length can be drawn.
