Exercise 26(B)

1. Construct triangle ABC, when:

AB = 6 cm, BC = 8 cm and AC = 4 cm

Solution:

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 26 - 14

Given

AB = 6 cm

BC = 8 cm

AC = 4 cm

Now,

Steps of Construction:

(i) Draw a line AB of length 6 cm

(ii) Using compasses, take B as centre, and draw an arc of 8 cm radius

(iii) Again, taking A as centre, draw another arc of 4 cm radius, which cuts the previous arc at point C

(iv) Now join AC and BC

The obtained triangle ABC is the required triangle.

2. AB = 3.5 cm, AC = 4.8 cm and BC = 5.2 cm

Solution:

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 26 - 15

Given

AB = 3.5 cm

AC = 4.8 cm

BC = 5.2 cm

Steps of Construction:

(i) Draw a line AB of length 3.5 cm

(ii) With the help of compasses, taking B as centre, draw an arc of 5.2 cm radius

(iii) Again with A as centre, draw an arc of 4.8 radius

(iv) Now, join AC and BC

3. AB = BC = 5 cm and AC = 3 cm. Measure angles A and C. Is ∠A = ∠C?

Solution:

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 26 - 16

Given

AB = BC = 5 cm

AC = 3 cm

Steps of Construction:

(i) Draw a line AB of length 5 cm

(ii) Using compasses take B as centre and draw an arc of 5 cm radius

(iii) Now, taking A as centre, draw another arc of 3 cm radius, which cuts the previous arc at point C

(iv) Now, join AC and BC

Measuring angles A and C, we get
∠A = 72.5o and ∠C = 72.5o
Hence, yes ∠A = ∠C.

4. AB = BC = CA = 4.5 cm. Measure all the angles of the triangle. Are they equal?

Solution:

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 26 - 17

Given

AB = BC = CA = 4.5 cm

Steps of Construction:

(i) Draw a line AB of length 4.5 cm

(ii) Using compasses and taking BC as centre, draw an arc of 4.5 cm radius

(iii) Again taking AC as centre, draw another arc of 4.5 cm radius, which cuts the previous arc at point C

(iv) Now, join AC and BC

(v) All the angles in ABC i.e ∠A = ∠B = ∠C = 600

Since AB = BC = CA = 4.5 cm and all the angles are equal. Hence, it is an equilateral triangle

5. AB = 3 cm, BC = 7 cm and ∠B = 900

Solution:

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 26 - 18

Given

AB = 3 cm,

BC = 7 cm and

∠B = 900

Steps of Construction:

(i) Draw a line segment AB of length 3 cm

(ii) Using compasses, construct ∠ABC = 900

(iii) Taking B as centre, draw an arc of 7 cm length and mark as point C i.e BC = 7 cm

(iv) Now, join A and C

(v) The obtained â–³ABC, is the required triangle

6. AC = 4.5 cm, BC = 6 cm and ∠C = 600

Solution:

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 26 - 19

Given

AC = 4.5 cm

BC = 6 cm

∠C = 600

Steps of Construction:

(i) Draw a line AC of length 4.5 cm

(ii) Using compasses, construct ∠ACB = 600

(iii) Draw an arc of 6 cm radius and mark it as B such that BC = 6 cm

(iv) Now, join B and A

7. AC = 6 cm, ∠A = 600 and ∠C = 450. Measure AB and BC.

Solution:

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 26 - 20

Given

∠A = 600

∠C = 450

Steps of Construction:

(i) Draw a line segment AC of length 6 cm

(ii) With the help of Compass, construct ∠A = 600

Solution:

Selina Solutions Concise Mathematics Class 6 Chapter 26 - 23

Given

BC = 3 cm

AC = 4 cm and

AB = 5 cm

Steps of Construction:

(i) Draw a line segment AB of length 5 cm

(ii) From B, using compass cut an arc of 3 cm radius
