Answer» Given : line PQ of length 4.2 cm, To Find : CONSTRUCT line AB such that the length of line AB is twice that of line PQ. Verify by measurement. Solution: Step1 : Draw a line segment PQ = 4.2 cm Step 2 : Draw a ray AX Step 3 : Using Compass width = PQ and taking A as CENTER cut ray AX at Y Step 4 : Keeping Compass width same and taking Y as center cut ray AX further at B AB = AX + XY => AB = PQ + PQ => AB = 2 PQ => AB = 2(4.1) => AB = 8.2 cm Measure AB by scale/ruler AB = 8.2 cm Hence Verified learn more: draw segment LM of length 3.4 cm draw its perpendicular bisector ...
