उत्तर
Analysis:
In ∆ABC, ∠B = 90° ...[Given]
∴ AC2 = AB2 + BC2 ...[Pythagoras theorem]
∴ 102 = AB2 + 82
∴ AB2 = 100 – 64
∴ AB2 = 36
∴ AB = 6 cm ...[Taking square root of both sides]
Steps of construction:
- Draw seg BC of length 8 cm.
- Take ∠B as 90° and draw an arc of 6 cm on it. Name the point as A.
- Join seg AC to obtain ∆ABC.
- Draw ray BX such that ∠CBX is an acute angle.
- Locate points B1, B2, B3, B4, B5 on ray BX such that, BB1 = B1B2 = B2B3 = B3B4 = B4B5.
- Join point C and B5.
- Through point B4 draw a line parallel to seg CB5 which intersects seg BC at point R.
- Draw a line parallel to AC through R to intersect line AB at point P.
∆PBR is the required triangle similar to ∆ABC.
