Question

Using a pair of compass and ruler. Construct triangle PQR in which
QR = 5.5 cm Q = 60° and PQ + PR = 9.5 cm. ​

Answer 1

Steps of Construction :

(1) Draw a line PQ = 5.5 cm.

(2) From Q as a centre draw an arc QR = 7.5 cm.

(3) From P as a centre draw an arc PR = 6 m, which intersects previous arc at R.

(4) Join PR and QR.

(5) Now, draw interior bisectors of ∠P, ∠QR ∠R which meets each other at point S.
