Q3 of 805 Page 18

Construct a quadrilateral PQRS where PQ = 3.5 cm, QR = 6.5 cm, P = R = 105° and S = 75°.

We know that sum of all angles in a quadrilateral is 3600


+ + + = 360o


105o + + 75 o + 105 o = 360o


= 360o – 285o = 75o


= 75o


Step 1: Draw the side PQ = 3.5 cm



Step 2: Draw = 105°



Step 3: Draw = 75°



Step 4: With Q as centre and radius equal to 6.5 cm draw an arc and name the point as R



Step 5: With R as centre ,construct an angle 105° and mark the point of intersection of line PX and the angle 105° as point S



Step 6: Join the points R and S



PQRS is the required quadrilateral
