उत्तर
- Steps of construction:
- Draw a line segment BC = 5 cm
- B as centre and radius 4 cm draw an arc at an angle of 45 degrees from BC.
- Join PC.
- B and C as centers, draw two perpendiculars to BC.
- P as centre and radius PC, cut an arc on the perpendicular on C at D.
- D as centre, draw a line parallel to BC which intersects the perpendicular on B at A.
ABCD is the required rectangle such that P is equidistant from AB and BC (since BD is angle bisector of angle B) as well as C and D.
- On measuring AB = 5.7 cm
