Draw a triangle ABC in which AB = 6 cm, BC = 4.5 cm and AC = 5 cm. Draw and label:
- the locus of the centres of all circles which touch AB and AC,
- the locus of the centres of all the circles of radius 2 cm which touch AB.
Hence, construct the circle of radius 2 cm which touches AB and AC .

उत्तर
Steps of construction:
- Draw a line segment BC = 4.5 cm
- With B as centre and radius 6 cm and C as centre and radius 5 cm, draw arcs which intersect each other at A.
- Join AB and AC.
ABC is the required triangle. - Draw the angle bisector of ∠BAC
- Draw lines parallel to AB and AC at a distance of 2 cm, which intersect each other and AD at O.
- With centre O and radius 2 cm, draw a circle which touches AB and AC.
