Question
In ∆ PQR, l(PQ) = 6 cm, l(QR) = 3.8 cm, l(PR) = 4.5 cm
Solution
Steps of construction:
- Draw a line PQ = 6 cm.
- With P as centre and 4.5 cm as the radius, draw an arc above the line PQ.
- With Q as the center and 3.8 cm as the radius, draw an arc cutting the previous drawn arc at point R.
- Join RP and RQ.
