Question

Sort the steps to construct a parallelogram of sides of length 4 cm, 9 cm and the angle ${60}^{\circ }$.

• A. $\mathrm{Draw}\mathrm{angle}{60}^o\mathrm{at}B\mathrm{and}\mathrm{mark}a\mathrm{point}C\mathrm{along}\mathrm{the}\mathrm{same}\mathrm{angle}\mathrm{at}9\mathrm{cm}.$
• B. $\mathrm{Join}A,B,C\&D\mathrm{to}\mathrm{get}\mathrm{the}\mathrm{parallelogram}\mathrm{ABCD}.$
• C. $\mathrm{Draw}a\mathrm{line}\mathrm{parallel}\mathrm{to}\mathrm{AB}\mathrm{passing}\mathrm{through}C\mathrm{and}\mathrm{measuring}4\mathrm{cm}.\mathrm{Mark}D\mathrm{on}\mathrm{it}.$
• D. Draw AB = 4 cm.

Answer 1

We can draw a parallelogram with sides of lengths 4 cm and 9 cm and one of the angles between the sides ${60}^{\circ }$.

Step 1: Draw AB = 4 cm.

Step 2: Draw angle ${60}^{\circ }$ at B and mark a point C along the same angle at 9 cm.

Step 3: Draw a line parallel to AB passing through C and measuring 4 cm. Mark D on it.

Step 4: Join A, B, C & D to get the parallelogram ABCD.
