use the property of equal corresponding angles to draw a line parallel to a given line from a point outside it
Answers
Drawing a line parallel to a given line from a point outside it using corresponding angles:
- Draw a straight line .
- Mark a point 'A' on it.
- Mark another point 'P' above this line.
- Join AP.
- With any suitable radius, draw an arc passing through AP and .
- With same radius, draw another arc from P on same side of the previous arc.
- Now measure ∠A and copy this angle to the arc drawn from P.
- Name the point of intersection of these arcs as Q.
- Join PQ.
- PQ║ and ∠A = ∠P.
Given : a line
To Find : draw a line parallel to a given line from a point outside it using the property of equal corresponding angles
Solution:
Step 1 : Draw a line segment AB
Step 2 : take a point X on AB
Step 3 : Draw an acute angle at X ∠YXB
Step 4 : Take a point Z on on XY
Step 5 Using suitable compass width and taking X as center draw an arc intersecting XY at M and XB at N
Step 6 : Keeping compass width same and taking Z as center draw an arc such that it intersect ZY at P
Step 7 : take compass width = MN and taking P as as center intersect the arc drawn in previous step at Q
Step 8 : Draw a line segment CD passing through Z & Q
CD || AB
