Construct a Δ PQR in which the base PQ=6cm, R=60o and the altitude from R to PQ is 4cm.

Open in App
Solution

Step 1: Draw a line segment PQ=6 cm

Step 2: At P, make QPX=600.

Step 3: Draw PYPX.

Step 4:Draw the perpendicular bisector of PQ which meets PY at O.

Step 5: With O as center and OP as radius draw a circle.

Step 6: On the perpendicular bisector MO, mark a point S such that MS=4 cm.
Step 7: Draw RSR parallel to PQ meeting the circle at R and at R.

Step 8: Complete PQR which is one of the required triangles.
