how to construct a rhombus by paper folding
Answers
hey mate your answer is here .........
Here is a 6-step way:
Fold the paper vertically and horizontally in half, and unfold
Call the points where the folds meet the edges A, B, C and D clockwise
Fold the shape ABCD, by symmetry, this is a rhombus (all side lengths are the same), and not a square (one diagonal is 8 in and the other 11.5 in)
[Note: it is well-known that any specified convex polygon contained within a piece of paper can be folded in finitely many moves, and all rhombi are convex actually, don't need this since folding the sides in doesn't pass through the exterior of the rhombus (and it also doesn't bound the number of moves)]
This takes 2+4=6 moves
hope it will help you please mark the answer as brainlist and don't forget to follow me for such type of answers.........
Answer:
To make the following shapes by paper folding and cutting. (a)A kite (b)A rhombus
Step-by-step explanation:
Learning objective:To understand the shape of a kite and that of a rhombus.
Pre-requisite:Familiarity with a quadrilateral and its parts.
Materials required: Sheets of paper, a pair of scissors, a ruler and a pencil/pen.
Procedure: (a)
Step-1: Take a rectangular sheet of paper.
Step-2: Fold it in such a way that one pair of opposite edges coincide with each other.
Step-3: Fold it again so that the other pair of opposite edges overlap each other. Mark the
creases Step-4:Unfold the fold of Step 3.
Step-5:Name the vertices of the folded sheet as A, B, C and D. Point P is the mid point of side AD.
Step-6:Mark a point Q on the side AD other than its mid point. Join QB and QC with the help of a
ruler. Step-7:Cut along the sides QB and QC and unfold the cut out. Shape thus obtained is a kite
BQCR. Procedure: (b)Repeat Steps 1 to 5 as above.
