Question

Construct parallelogram $ABCD$ with the following measurements:
$AD=4.3cm$, $DC=5.7cm$, $DB=7cm$

Answer 1

Steps of construction:

1. Draw $AD=5.7$ cm

2.With $A$ as center and $4.3$ cm as radius draw an arc.

3.With $B$ as center and $7$ cm as radius, draw another arc to intersect the above at $D$.

4.Join $AD$ and $BD$

5.With $B$ as center and $4.3$ cm as radius draw an arc.

6.With $D$ as center and $5.7$ cm as radius draw another arc to intersect the above at $C$.

7.Join $DC$ and $BC$.

Hence, $ABCD$ is the required parallelogram:
