Answer:Take a line segment AB = 2 units (consider 1 unit = 2 cm) on x-axis.
Draw a perpendicular on B and construct a line BC = 1 unit length.
Join AC which will be √5 (Pythagoras theorem). Take A as center, and AC as radius draw an which cuts the x-axis at point E.
The line segment AC represents √5 unit
