QUESTION
Construct ☐ BARC such that l(BA) = l(BC) = 4.2 cm, l(AC) = 6.0 cm, l(AR) = l(CR) = 5.6 cm
SOLUTION
Steps of Construction:
Step 1: Draw AR = 5.6 cm.
Step 2: With R as centre and radius 5.6 cm, draw an arc.
Step 3: With A as centre and radius 6 cm, draw an arc cutting the previous arc at C.
Step 4: Join RC.
Step 5: With A as centre and radius 4.2 cm, draw an arc.
Step 6: With C as centre and radius 4.2 cm, draw an arc cutting the previous arc at B.
Step 7: Join AB and CB.
