Question
Construct a right-angled isosceles triangle with one side (other than hypotenuse) of length 4.5 cm.
Solution
Steps of construction:
Step I: Draw a line AB = 4.5 cm.
Step II: Construct a right angle (90°) at point B, i.e. ∠ABY = 90°.
Step III: From point B, cut an arc 4.5 cm on BY at C.
Step IV: Join C to A.
Hence, ΔABC is the required triangle having AB – AC = 4.5 cm.
