Question
A quadrilateral can be drawn if all four sides and one diagonal is known.
Options
True
False
Solution
This statement is True.
Explanation:
- Let AB, BC, CD, AD (sides) and AC (diagonal) be given.
- Draw ΔABC using SSS construction.
- Now, we have to locate the 4th point D. This ‘D’ would be on the side opposite to B with reference to AC.
- So, with A as centre draw an arc of radius of length equal to AD.
- Now, with C as centre draw an arc of radius of length equal to CD.
- The intersection of these 2 arcs is D. Mark D and complete ABCD.
