Q13 of 805 Page 12

Draw a line segment AB of length 5.2 cm and construct the perpendicular bisector of AB.

Step 1: A line segment AB of length 5.2cm is constructed



Step 2: Arc radius of any arbitrary length is taken in compass and arcs are cut off centring at A and B on both sides of the line segment and joined to get the required perpendicular bisector



AB = 5.2cm


ML is the perpendicular bisector of AB
