Question 3
Draw $\Delta$ PQR with PQ = 4 cm, QR = 3.5 cm and PR = 4 cm. What type of triangle is this?

Answer 1

To construction: $\Delta$ PQR, in which PQ = 4cm, QR= 3.5 cm and PR = 4cm.
Steps of construction:

(a) Draw a line segment QR = 3.5 cm.
(b) Taking Q as centre and radius 4 cm, draw an arc.
(c) Similarly, taking R as centre and radius 4 cm, draw an another arc which intersects first arc at P.
(d) Join PQ and PR.

It is an isosceles triangle since two sides are equal.
