Question
Construct a triangle using the given data: DE = 6.5cm, EF = 5.8cm and DF = 4.2cm
Solution
DE = 6.5cm, EF = 5.8cm and DF = 4.2cm
Steps of Construction:
1. Draw DE = 6.5cm
2. With D as centre and radius 4.2cm, draw an arc.
3. With E as centre and radius 5.8cm, draw another arc to cut the first arc at F.
4. Join DF and EF.
Thus, DEF is the required triangle.
