Question

The quadrilateral ABCD is given below. What all measurements you need to draw the quadrilateral ABCD? The measurements are given in following options. Which of the options can help you to draw ABCD?

• A. AB, BC, CD, DA
• B. AB, BC, CD, DA, BD
• C. AB, BC, CD, AC, BD
• D. Both B & C

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (C)

The correct options are
B

AB, BC, CD, DA, BD

C

AB, BC, CD, AC, BD

We know that we need minimum 5 measurements from a quadrilateral to draw it. In option B & C, we have 5 measurements. In B, we have 4 sides and 1 diagonal. In C, we have 3 sides and 2 diagonals. So, it is possible to construct the quadrilateral using the set of measurements provided in options B & C.
