Question

To construct perpendicular to a line at a
given point on it.
Question : Draw AB = 9.7 cm. Take a point P
on it such that A-P-B and AP = 3.5 cm.
Through P draw a line MN perpendicular to
seg AB.
Ano​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Draw segment AB of 9.7 cm.

2. Take point P on segment AB such that A-P-B and AP = 3.5 cm.

3. Take convenient radius in compass and from point P draw arcs x and y as in figure.

4. Take radius in compass more than half distance of xy and from x draw an arc to upper side.

5. From point y,draw arc intersecting the arc drew before from point x.
