1. Construct the following quadrilaterals.

(i) Quadrilateral ABCD AB = 4.5 cm

BC = 5.5 cm

CD = 4 cm AD = 6 cm AC = 7 cm

Solution:

The rough sketch of the quadrilateral ABCD can be drawn as follows:

JUMP is the required quadrilateral.

(iii) Parallelogram MORE

OR = 6 cm

Solution:

RE = 4.5 cm

EO = 7.5

We know that opposite sides of a parallelogram are equal in length, and also these are parallel to each other.

i.e., ME = OR, MO = ER

The rough sketch of the parallelogram MORE can be drawn as follows:

MORE is the required parallelogram.

(iv) Rhombus BEST

BE = 4.5 cm

ET = 6 cm

Solution:

We know that all sides of a rhombus are of the same measure. Hence, BE = ES = ST = TB.

The rough sketch of the rhombus BEST can be drawn as follows:
