Solution
Given: In the Cyclic Quadrilateral EFGH EF=5.2cm, ∠GEF=50o, FG=6cm and ∠EGH=40o. Construction: (i) Draw a rough diagram and mark the measurements. Draw a line segment EF=5.2cm. (ii) From E, draw EX such that ∠FEX=50o. (iii) With F as centre and radius 6cm, draw an arc intersecting EX at G. (iv) Join FG. (v) Draw the perpendicular bisectors of EF and FG intersecting each other at O. (vi) With O as centre and OE(=OF=OG) as radius, draw a circumcircle. (vii) From G, draw GY such that ∠EGY=40o which interscets the circle at H. (viii) Join EH. Now, EFGH is the required cyclic quadrilateral.
