उत्तर


Steps of construction:

  1. Draw a line segment BC = 5 cm
  2. At B, draw a ray BX making an angle of 60° and cut off BA = 4.6 cm.
  3. Draw the angle bisector of ∠ABC.
  4. Draw the perpendicular bisector of AB which intersects the angle bisector at P.
    P is the required point which is equidistant from AB and BC, as well as from A and B.
