Question 6

Q6) Construct a triangle ABC given AB = 6 cm, BC = 5 cm and CA = 5.6 cm. From vertex A draw a perpendicular on to side BC. Measure the length of this perpendicular.

Solution

Transcript

Solution:

Draw a line AB = 6 cm

Using compass taking A and B as center draw arcs of 5 cm and 5.6 cm, which cuts each other at C.

Join AC and BC.

Now, from vertex A draw a bisector AD towards BC. On measuring AD = 5 cm.
