Question

To construct a square, we need the length of what?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Draw a line segment AB of 5 cm.

Construction of Square: Step 1

Step 2: Extend the line AB and using a compass, mark two arcs from B on the line. Mark the points as F and G.

Construction of Square: Step 2

Step 3: Mark arcs from point F and G above the line. The point where the arcs meet is named H.

Construction of Square: Step 3

Step 4: Join the point B and H.

Construction of Square: Step 4

Step 5: Set the compass to the radius of 5 cm and mark arc from points A and B. The point where the arc intersects BH is the vertex C of the square.

Construction of Square: Step 5

Step 6: With the same radius of 5 cm on the compass, mark an arc from the point C on the previously drawn arc above the point A. Mark their point of intersection as D.

Construction of Square: Step 6

Step 7: Join the points C and D as well as A and D to get the required square ABCD.

Answer 2

The gamma rays are ionized radiations that have high energy with great penetrating power and they have hazardous effects on our bone marrow and internal organs while on the other hand, they are useful to treat cancer and tumors. If intensive care is not taken, these rays can penetrate into the body and can cause damage to all the tissues and organs of the body.
