In the figure given below, find a point P on CD equidistant from points A and B.
उत्तर
Steps of construction:
- AB and CD are the two lines given.
- Draw a perpendicular bisector of line AB which intersects CD in P.
P is the required point which is equidistant from A and B.
Since P lies on perpendicular bisector of AB; PA = PB.
