Q1 of 805 Page 4

Construct the following quadrilaterals.

(i) Quadrilateral DEAR


DE = 4 cm


EA = 5 cm


AR = 4.5 cm


E = 60°


A = 90°


(ii) Quadrilateral TRUE


TR = 3.5 cm


RU = 3 cm


UE = 4 cm


R = 75°


U = 120°


(i) A rough sketch can be drawn.



Step 1: Draw DE of 5 cm.


[We will take AE as base since both points have angles so that it will get easier in the later part.]



Step 2: At point E and A we draw 60° and 90° respectively.



Step 3: From point D and E, we draw arcs of measurement of 4cm and 4.5 cm respectively such that they intersect at point R and A.



Step 4: Join AR.



(ii) A rough diagram will make it easier to do construction.



Step 1:


We will draw base of RU = 3 cm



Step 2: At point R and U we will draw angles of 75° and 120° respectively.



Step 3: Taking point R and U as center we draw arcs measuring of 3.5 cm and 4 cm respectively.



Step 4: Join TE.
