Question
Construct a rectangle ABCD; if :
AD = 4.8 cm and diagonal AC = 6.4 cm.
Solution
Steps :
- Draw AD = 4.8 cm.
- At D, draw ∠XDA = 90°.
- From A, draw an arc of radius 6-4 cm which meets DX at C.
- From A, draw an arc of radius equal to DC.
- From C, draw an arc of radius 4.8 cm which meets the first arc at B.
- Join AB and CB. Thus ABCD is the required rectangle.
