  1. Construct a ΔABC in which BC = 6.5 cm, ∠ABC = 60°, AB = 5 cm.
  2. Construct the locus of points at a distance of 3.5 cm from A.
  3. Construct the locus of points equidistant from AC and BC.
  4. Mark 2 points X and Y which are at a distance of 3.5 cm from A and also equidistant from AC and BC. Measure XY.

उत्तर

  1. Steps of construction:
    1. Draw BC = 6.5 cm using a ruler.
    2. With B as center and radius equal to approximately half of BC, draw an arc that cuts the segment BC at Q.
    3. With Q as center and same radius, cut the previous arc at P.
    4. Join BP and extend it.
    5. With B as center and radius 5 cm, draw an arc that cuts the arm PB to obtain point A.
    6. Join AC to obtain ΔABC.
  2. With A as center and radius 3.5 cm, draw a circle.
    The circumference of a circle is the required locus.
  3. Draw CH, which is bisector of ΔACB. CH is the required locus.
  4. Circle with center A and line CH meet at points X and Y as shown in the figure. xy = 5 cm (approximately).

Construct a triangle ABC with AB = 5.5 cm, AC = 6 cm and ∠BAC = 105°

Hence:

1) Construct the locus of points equidistant from BA and BC

2) Construct the locus of points equidistant from B and C.

3) Mark the point which satisfies the above two loci as P. Measure and write the length of PC.
