उत्तर
Steps of construction:
- Draw any acute angled ∆ PQR.
- With P as centre, draw an arc that cut the side QR at X and Y.
- With X as centre and radius more than half of XY, draw an arc below QR. With Y as centre and same radius draw another arc that cut the previous arc at A.
- Join PA that intersects QR at L. So, PL is the altitude on side QR.
In the same manner, draw QM⊥PR and RN⊥PQ.
Hence, ∆PQR is the required triangle with altitudes PL, QM and RN on sides QR, RP and PQ respectively, with O as the point of concurrence of all the three altitudes.
