Construct a triangle $A B C$ in which $A B = 5 c m, B C = 4.3 c m$ and $A C = 4 c m$

Open in App

Solution

We follow several steps in the construction:
1. Draw a ling segment which is sufficiently long using ruler.

2. Locate points A and B on it such that $A B = 5 c m$ .

3. With A as centre and radius $4 c m$ , draw an arc.

4. With B as centre and radius $4.3 c m$ , draw another arc cutting the previous arc at C.

5. Join $A C$ and $B C$

Then $A B C$ is the required triangle.
