Question

Steps for constructing a line segment whose length is equal to the difference of the lengths of the two given line segments are:

(i) Now draw a line L.

(ii) Take two line segments AB and CD.

(iii) With P as a centre cut a length PZ equal to AB.

(iv) SZ is the required line Segment.

(v) Mark point P on the line L.

(vi) Now from P cut a length PS equal to CD.

• A. vi, iv, ii, i, v, iii
• B. v, iii, vi, iv, ii, i
• C. ii, i, vi, iv, v, iii
• D. ii, i, v, iii, vi, iv

Answer 1

The correct option is D

ii, i, v, iii, vi, iv

Correct sequence is : ii, i, v, iii, vi, iv

(i) Take two line segments AB and CD.

(ii) Now draw a line L.

(iii) Mark point P on the line L.

(iv) With P as a centre cut a length PZ equal to AB.

(v) Now from P cut a length PS equal to CD.

(vi) SZ is the required line Segment.
