उत्तर

   
Steps of construction:

  1. Draw a line segment BC = 5 cm.
  2. With centers B and C, draw two arcs of 5 cm radius each which intersect each other at A.
  3. Join AB and AC.
  4. Draw angle bisectors of ∠B and ∠C intersecting each other at O.
  5. From O, draw OL ⊥ BC.
  6. Now with centre O and radius OL, draw a circle which will touch the sides of ΔABC.
    On measuring, OL = 1.4 cm.

Construct a regular hexagon of side 4 cm. Construct a circle circumscribing the hexagon.


Using a ruler and compasses only: 

  1. Construct a triangle ABC with the following data: AB = 3.5 cm, BC = 6 cm and ∠ABC = 120°.
  2. In the same diagram, draw a circle with BC as diameter. Find a point P on the circumference of the circle which is equidistant from AB and BC. 
  3. Measure ∠BCP.

Constuct a triangle ABC with AB = 5.5 cm, AC = 6 cm and ∠BAC = 105°. Hence: 

  1. Construct the locus of point equdistant from BA and BC.
  2. Construct the locus of points equidistant from B and C.
  3. Mark the point which satisfies the above two loci as P. Measure and write the length of PC.

Draw line segments OA = 4.5 cm, OB = 3.2 cm such that ∠ AOB = 45°. Construct a circle touching OA at A and passing through B. 


Construct a triangle ABC, given that the radius of the circumcircle of triangle ABC is 3.5 cm, ∠ BCA = 45° and ∠ BAC = 60°.


Using ruler and compass only, construct a triangle ABC such that AB = 5 cm, ABC = 75°, and the radius of the circumcircle of triangle ABC is 3.5 cm. On the same diagram, construct a circle, touching AB at its middle point and also touching the side AC.


Construct a triangle whose sides are 4.4 cm, 5.2 cm, and 7.1 cm. Construct its circumcircle. Write also the steps of construction.


Construct a Δ ABC with BC = 6.5 cm, AB = 5.5 cm, AC = 5 cm. Construct the incircle of the triangle. Measure and record the radius of the incircle.


(i) Construct a triangle ABC, in which AB = 5.0 cm, BC = 3.5 cm and ∠ ABC = `67 1/2°`
( Use a pair of compasses and ruler only.)
(ii) Construct a circle to touch AB at B and it pass though C.


Ruler and compasses only may be used in this question. All constructions lines and arcs must be clearly shown, and the be sufficient length and clarity to permit assessment:
(i) Construct a triangle ABC, in which AB = 9 cm, BC = 10 cm and angle ABC = 45°.
(ii) Draw a circle, with center A and radius 2.5 cm. Let it meet AB at D.
(iii) Construct a circle to touch the circle with center A externally at D and also to touch the line BC.
