Question

Construct a rhombus $PQRS$ with $PQ=7\text{cm}$, $QS=5.5\text{cm}$.

Answer 1

Given that : $PQ=7\text{cm}$ and $QS=5.5\text{cm}$

We know that, all sides of a rhombus are equal.

So,

$PQ=QR=RS=SP=7\text{cm}$

To construct rhombus, we follow these step :

Step 1 :- Draw a line $QS=5.5\text{cm}$

Step 2 :- Now take radius of $7\text{cm}$ and draw two arc on both side of line $QS$ , by taking center $Q$

Step 3 :- Now take radius of $7\text{cm}$ and draw two arc on both side of line $QS$ , by taking center$S$. Both arcs meet at $P$ and $R$.

Step 4 :- Now join $PQ,PS,SR$ and $QR$
