Question

Draw triangle with the measures given below.

In ΔABC, l(AB) = 5.5 cm, l(BC) = 4.2 cm, l(AC) = 3.5 cm

Answer 1

Steps of construction:

1. Draw a line AB = 5.5 cm.
2. With A as a centre and 3.5 cm as the radius, draw an arc above the line AB.
3. With B as the center and 4.2 cm as the radius, draw an arc cutting the previous drawn arc at point C.
4. Join CA and CB. 

Δ ABC is thus the required triangle.
