प्रश्न
By geometrical construction, it is possible to divide a line segment in the ratio `sqrt(3) : 1/sqrt(3)`.
विकल्प
True
False
उत्तर
This statement is True.
Explanation:
According to the question,
Ratio = `sqrt(3) : 1/sqrt(3)`
On simplifying we get,
`sqrt(3) : 1/sqrt(3) = (sqrt(3) xx sqrt(3))/1` = 3 : 1
Required ratio = 3 : 1
Hence, geometrical construction is possible to divide a line segment in the ratio 3 : 1.
