Answer:

Pls mark me as brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Draw a line segment AB

2. With center A and radius 4cm AB, draw arcs one on each side of AB.

3. With center B and same radius draw arcs cutting previous arcs at P and Q respectively.

4. Join PQ and which intersect AB at C

5. With center C and radius more than 1/2 CB draw arcs, one on each side of CB.

6. With center B and same radius, draw arcs cutting previous arcs at R and S respectively

7. Join RS and which intersect CB at D

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw a perpendcular bisecter taking equal length from x and y to find the mid point z. From z dra an arc=zx to find point c on the perpendicular.

From c cut arc =xz on either side draw arcs=xz from x and y to cot theabove

arcs at a and b on either side of c. then ab will be similar to xy.
