Question
Construct a triangle XYZ, in which XY = YZ = ZX = 4.5 cm. Draw all its lines of symmetry.
Solution
Steps of Construction:
(i) Draw line XY = 4.5 cm
(ii) With X as a centre and radius 4.5 cm draw an arc at Z.
(iii) With Y as a centre and radius 4.5 cm draw an arc which cuts the previous arc at Z.
(iv) Join XZ and YZ.
∆XYZ is the required triangle and lines of symmetries are shown in the above figure.
