2. Draw a line segment PQ = 8.4 cm. Divide PQ into four equal parts using ruler and compass. [CBSE-14-ERFKZ8H], [CBSE – 14-GDQNI3W], [CBSE-14-17DIG1U]
Answer. Steps of construction :
  1. Draw a line segment PQ = 8.4 cm.
  2. With P and Q as centres, draw arcs of radius little more than half of PQ. Let his line intersects PQ in M.
  3. With M and Q as centres, draw arcs of radius little more than half of MQ. Let this line intersects PQ in N.
  4. With P and M as centres, draw arcs of radius little more than half of PM. Let this line intersects PQ in L. Thus, L, M and N divide the line segment PQ in four equal parts.

4. Why we cannot construct a ΔABC, if ∠A=60°, AB — 6 cm, AC + BC = 5 cm but construction of A ABC is possible if ∠A=60°, AB = 6 cm and AC – BC = 5 cm. [CBSE-14-GDQNI3W]
Answer. We know that, by triangle inequality property, construction of triangle is possible if sum of two sides of a triangle is greater than the third side.
Here, AC + BC = 5 cm which is less than AB ( 6 cm)
Thus, ΔABC is not possible.
Also, by triangle inequality property, construction of triangle is possible, if difference of two
sides of a triangle is less than the third side
Here, AC – BC = 5 cm, which is less than AB (6 cm)
Thus, ΔABC is possible.
5. Construct angle of {{\left[ 52\frac{1}{2} \right]}^{0}} using compass only. [CBSE-14-17DIG1U]
