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.
