Q31 of 32 Page 20

Express √5.41 geometrically on a number line.

Steps to be followed:


1. Draw a line segment AB of length 5.41 on the number line.


2. Extend B to C such that BC = 1unit.


3. Now mark the mid-point of AC as O.


4. Taking OC as the radius draw a semi-circle.


5. Now, from point B draw a line perpendicular to AC such that the line intersects the semi-circle at D


6. BD will be √5.41.
