Take any three non-collinear points A, B, C and draw triangle ABC. Through each vertex
of the triangle, draw a line parallel to the opposite side using ruler and compass.
Answers
Answer:
With centre C and the same radius as in the previous step, draw an arc on the opposite side of BC to cut BC at P. ... With centre P and radius equal to WV, draw an arc cutting the arc drawn in the previous step at Q. 4. Join CQ and produce in both directions to obtain the line parallel to AB.
Step-by-step explanation:
. Mark three non collinear points A, B and C such that none of them lie on the same line.
2. Join AB, BC and CA to form triangle ABC.
Parallel line to AC
1. With A as centre, draw an arc cutting AC and AB at T and U, respectively.
2. With centre B and the same radius as in the previous step, draw an arc on the opposite side of AB to cut AB at X.
3. With centre X and radius equal to TU, draw an arc cutting the arc drawn in the previous step at Y.
4. Join BY and produce in both directions to obtain the line parallel to AC.
