उत्तर



Steps of construction:

1. Draw a line segment RQ = 5 cm.

2. At R draw RE such that ∠QRE = 40°

3. At R, draw RF such that ∠ERF = 90°

4. Draw the perpendicular bisector to RQ, which intersects RF at O and RQ at G.

5. With O as centre and OP as radius draw a circle.

6. From G mark arcs of radius 4.4 cm on the circle. Mark them as P and S.

7. Join PR and PQ. Then ∆PQR is the required triangle.

8. From P draw a line PN which is perpendicular to RQ it meets at N.

9. Measure the altitude PN.
PN = 2.2 cm.
