Construct an equilateral ∆ABC with side 5 cm. ∆ABC ~ ∆LMN, ratio the corresponding sides of triangle is 6 : 7, then construct ΔLMN and ΔABC

आकृती

उत्तर


Analysis: ∆ABC ∼ ∆LMN

∴ `"AB"/"LM" = "BC"/"MN" = "AC"/"LN"`  ......[Corresponding sides of similar triangles]

∴ `5/"LM" = 5/"MN" = 5/"LN" = 6/7`   .....[Given]

∴ `5/"LM" = 6/7`

∴ LM = `(5 xx 7)/6`

∴ LM = 5.8 cm (approx)

∴ LM = MN = LN = 5.8 cm (approx)    .....[Equilateral triangle]

Steps of Construction:

  ∆ABC ∆PQR
i. Draw seg BC of 5 cm Draw seg MN of 5.8 cm
ii. Draw two arcs at 5 cm from point B and point C respectively. Draw two arcs at 5.8 cm from point M and point N respectively.
iii. Name the point of intersection of two arcs as A. Name the point of intersection of two arcs as L.
iv. Join seg AB and seg AC. Join seg LM and seg LN.
