Question
Construct an isosceles Δ ABC such that:
Base BC = 4 cm and base angle = 30°. Measure the other two sides of the triangle.
Solution
Steps of Construction:
We know that in an isosceles triangle base angles are equal.
(i) Draw a line segment BC = 4 cm.
(ii) At B and C, draw rays making an angle of 30° each intersecting each other at A.
∆ ABC is the required triangle.
On measuring the equal sides each is 2.5 cm (approx.) in length.
