I need the diagram​

Answer 1

Answer:

Steps of construction:

1: A line AB=14.4cm is drawn.

2: Draw a ray AC making an acute angle at A in the downward direction. Then, divide it into (2+3+4)=9 parts.

3: Join B and A9

4: Draw a line parallel to BA9 at A2 and A5 intersecting AB at X and Y respectively..

5: With X as centre and XA as radius, draw an arc.

6: With Y as centre and YB as radius, draw an arc cutting the previous arc at Z

7: Join XZ and YZ.

Hence, ΔXYZ is the required triangle.
