Question

Construct a triangle PQR in which QR = 6 cm, ∠Q = 60° and PR – PQ = 2 cm.

Answer 1

Constructing a triangle PQR in which QR = 6 cm, ∠Q = 60° and PR – PQ = 2 cm.

Steps of Construction : 

1. Draw a line segment QR = 6 cm. 

2. With the help of protractor draw a line segment Qx and ∠Q = 60°. 

3. Produce line segment xQ upto y. mark T such that QT = 2 cm. Join TR. 

4. If perpendicular bisector of TR is drawn, that meets line segment Qx at P. PR is joined. 

Now, ∆PQR is constructed.
