Type 1: When 4 sides and one diagonal are given
1. Construct a quadrilateral ABCD, when AB = 4 cm, BC = 6.0 cm, CD = DA = 5.2 cm and AC = 8 cm​

Answer 1

Answer:

Draw AB=4.2 cm.

2) With A as centre and radius equal to 8 cm, draw an arc.

3) With B as centre and radius equal to 6 cm, draw another arc, cutting the previous arc at C.

4) Join AC and BC .

5) With A as centre and radius equal to 5 cm, draw an arc.

6) With C as centre and radius equal to 5.2 cm, draw another arc cutting the previous arc at D.

7) Join AD and CD.

Hence, ABCD is the required quadrilateral.
