Question

Construct triangles of the measures given below.

In ∆MNP, l(NP) = 5.2 cm, m∠N = 70^°, m ∠P = 40^°

Answer 1

Steps of construction:
1. Draw a line NP = 5.2 cm.
2. With N as centre, draw ∠XNP = 70$°$.
3. With P as centre, draw ∠YPN = 40º.
4. Let YP and XN meet at point M.
∆MNP is the required triangle.
