Question

Q2.Construct a triangle XYZ in which ZY=60°, ZZ=60° and
YZ=5.5cm.Measure XY.

Answer 1

➤ Answer :-

XY = 5.8 cm

$\:$

$\dashrightarrow$ Steps :-

• First, draw a line segment YZ of 5.5 cm.
• Next, take a protractor and keep it's mid-point on the point Y and draw a ray measuring 60°.
• Again, take a protractor and keep it's mid-point on the point Z and draw a ray measuring 60°.
• Now, join both the rays drawn. If they doesn't join we should extend the rays. Name it as point X.
• Then, measure the line XY.
• Finally, the triangle is constructed.

$\dashrightarrow$ Instruments used :-

• Ruler :- The ruler is used to draw the line segments of accurate measurements and the drawn lines should be correct and straight always.
• Protractor :- The protractor is used to draw the rays of accurate measurements of degrees. It's also used to measure the angles given.
