One side of a rhombus is of length 4 cm and the length of an altitude is 3.2 cm. Draw the rhombus.



Steps of construction:


(i) Draw a line segment of 4 cm


(ii) From point A draw a perpendicular from point A and cut a length of 3.2 cm to get point E.


(iii) From point E and a line parallel to AB.


(iv) From points A and B cut two arcs of length 4 cm on the drawn parallel line to get points D and C.


(v) Join AD and BC to get rhombus ABCD.
