Construct an equilateral triangle ABC with side 6 cm. Draw a circle circumscribing the triangle ABC. 

योग

उत्तर

 
Steps of construction:

  1. Draw a line segment BC = 6 cm.
  2. With centers B and C, draw two arcs of radius 6 cm which intersect each other at A.
  3. Join AC and AB.
  4. Draw perpendicular bisectors of AC, AB and BC intersecting each other at O.
  5. With centre O and radius OA or OB or OC draw a circle which will pass through A, B and C.
    This is the required circumcircle of triangle ABC.
