Q1 of 805 Page 18

Construct a quadrilateral ABCD in which AB = 4.4 cm, BC = 4 cm, CD = 6.4 cm, DA = 3.8 cm and BD = 6.6 cm.

As four sides and diagonal of the quadrilateral is given.

Step 1-Using SSS construction condition first we will draw ΔABD. Draw line BD of length 6.6 cm.



Step 2- Then using compass take a length of 4.4 cm and draw an arc by taking B as the centre. Do the same by taking D as centre and length of 3.8 cm.


Step 3-Now join the intersection point to B and D and label it as A.



Step 4- Now for vertex C, using compass take a length of 4 cm and draw an arc by taking B as the centre. Do the same by taking D as centre and length of 6.4 cm.



Step 5-Join the intersection point to B and D and label it as C.
