Q2 of 24 Page 53

Construct rectangle MORE with the following measurements. Find its area also.

MO = 5 cm and diagonal MR = 6.5 cm.

Step 1 – Construct a line MO = 5 cm



Step 2 – Draw a ray perpendicular to MO passing through O



Step 3 – Cut an arc of length 6.5 cm on the ray with M as center and mark the intersecting point as R.



Step 4 – Complete the rectangle by making RO and MO perpendicular to RE and ME respectively.



Measure RE


RE = 4.2 cm


Area = 5 × 4.2


Area = 21
