What is the last step in constructing a quadrilateral with 3 sides and 2 included angles given?
Draw line segment
Suppose, we have to draw a quadrilateral. The length of three given sides are 'a' units, 'b' units and 'c' units. The measure of two given angles is x and y.
Step 1: Construct a line segment AB = 'a' units.
Step 2: Taking AB as the base, construct a line making an angle x with the line segment AB.
Step 3: With B as center and radius 'b' units cut the line with an arc and mark this point as C.
Step 4: Taking BC as the base, construct a line making an angle y with the line segment BC.
Step 5: With C as center and radius 'c' units cut the line with an arc and mark this point as D.
Step 6: The final step is to join A and D to complete the quadrilateral ABCD.
