Question:
1) Draw a line segment AB=7.5cm. Find a pint P on it which divides it in the ratio 2:7. Write the steps of construction and justify it. 2) Three sides PQ, QR, and PR of triangle PQR are 5cm, 6cm and 7cm respectively. Construct the triange PQR. Construct a triangle PQ’R’ such that each of its sides is 2/3 of corresponding sides of triangle of PQR. Write the steps and justify the construction. 3)Construct a triangle ABC in which AB=5cm, angleB=60 , altitudeCD=3cm. Construct a triangle AQR similar to triangle ABC such that each side of triangle AQR is 1.5 times that of the corresponding side of triangle ABC. 4)Draw a parallelogram ABCD in which BC=5cm, AB=3cm, and angle ABC=60. Divide it into triangles BCD and ABD by the diagonal BD. Construct the triangle BD’C’ similar to triangle BDC with scale factor 4/3. Draw the line segment D’A’ parallel to DA, where A’ lies on extended side BA . Is A’BC’D’ a parallelogram?
Answer:

Answer 3. Steps of Construction:

1. Draw a line segment AB = 5 cm

2. Draw ∠ABX = 60 degree and ∠ABY = 90 degree at B

3. With B as center and radius 3 cm, mark an arc intersecting the ray BY in Z

4. Draw a line passing through Z and parallel to AB. Let it intersect the ray BX in C

5. Through C, draw an altitude to AB intersecting in D. Here CD = BF = 3 cm

6. Join AC

Thus ΔABC is the required traingle.

Answer 4.

To draw a parallelogram ABCD in which BC = 5 cm, AB = 3 cm, and angle ABC = 60 degree, we need the following steps:

1. Draw a line segment AB = 3 cm

2. At B, construct angle ABM = 60 degree

3. From Bm, cut a line segment BC = 5 cm

4. Now, from point A, draw AN || BC

5. From the point C, draw CD || BA, meeting AN at D

So, ABCD is the required parallelogram.

Now, from diagonal BD, divide the parallelogram ABCD into two triangles BCD and ABD

To construct the triangle BD1 C1 similar to triangle BDC with scale factor 4 : 3, we do the following steps:

1. Below BD, make an acute angle DBX

2. Along BX, make four points B1 , B2 ,B3 , B4 such that BB1 , B1 B2 , B2 B3 , B3 B4

3. Join B3 D

4. From B4 , draw B3 D1 || B3 D meeting BD produced at D1

5. From D1 , draw C1 D1 || CD meeting BD produced at C1

Thus B D1 C1 is the required triangle whose sides are 4/3 times the corresponding side of triangle BDC.

Now, draw the line segment D1 A1 parallel to DA where A1 lies on the extended side BA

Justification:

Since AB || CD and CD || C1 D1 

=> AB || C1 D1  

=> AB1 || C1 D1 

Similarly

Since BC || DA and DA || D1 A1 

=> BC || DA  

=> BC1 || D1 A1

Hence, A1 B1 C1 D1 is a parallelogram
