Solution
The correct option is B 3421
The correct steps for the required construction are as follows:
1. Place a ruler along the edge opposite to the right angle of the set -square. Draw the line AB.
2. Place a set -square on AB such that one arm of its right angle aligns along AB.
3. Draw a line segment CD along the edge through C, meeting AB at D.
4. Hold the ruler fixed. Slide the set -square along the ruler till the point C touches the other arm of the set -square.
