Question

Given below are different measurement of a triangle and one of their construction step. Match the correct pair

• A. Draw two arcs
• B. Mark two degrees
• C. Draw one arc
• D. Draw a right angle

Answer 1

For the construction of triangle from the measurement of three sides, two arcs of given measurement of two sides are drawn from the third side and the intersection point of these arc becomes the third vertex of the triangle.

For the construction of triangle from two sides and one angle, one arc of measurement equal to one of the side is cut on the line passing through the mark of specified angle given.

For the construction of triangle from two angles and one side , two marks of specified angle is done on the given side and lines passing through them is extended. The point where these lines intersects becomes the third vertex of the triangle.

For the construction of triangle from hypotenuse and one side, a right angle is drwan at the one side and then an arc of hypotenuse radius is drawn. The point where it intersects becomes the third vertex of the triangle.
