Question
Construct the following quadrilaterals.
Quadrilateral LIFT
LI = 4 cm
IF = 3 cm
TL = 2.5 cm
LF = 4.5 cm
IT = 4 cm
Solution
A rough sketch of this quadrilateral can be drawn as follows.
1) Δ ITL can be constructed by using the given measurements as follows.
2) Vertex F is 4.5 cm away from vertex L and 3 cm away from vertex I. Therefore, while taking L and I as centres, draw arcs of 4.5 cm radius and 3 cm radius respectively, which will be intersecting each other at point F
3) Join F to T and F to I.
LIFT is the required quadrilateral.
