उत्तर
Steps of construction:
- Draw a line segment AB = 5.6 cm
- From A and B, as centers and radius 9.2 cm, make two arcs which intersect each other at C.
- Join CA and CB.
- Draw two lines n and m parallel to BC at a distance of 2 cm
- Draw the angle bisector of ∠BAC which intersects m and n at P and Q respectively.
P and Q are the required points which are equidistant from AB and AC.
On measuring the distance between P and Q is 4.3 cm.
