Answer

Steps of construction :

  1. Draw a line segment AB = 5.8 cm

  2. Since diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other; construct triangle OBC, such that :

OB = 12BD=12×6.2\dfrac{1}{2}BD = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 6.2 = 3.1 cm

OA = 12AC=12×8.2\dfrac{1}{2}AC = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 8.2 = 4.1 cm

  1. Produce BO upto D, such that OD = OB = 3.1 cm and produce AO upto C, such that OC = OA = 4.1 cm.

  2. Join BC, CD and AD.

AB = 5.8 cm, diagonal AC = 8.2 cm and diagonal BD = 6.2 cm. Construction of Polygons, Concise Mathematics Solutions ICSE Class 9.

Hence, ABCD is the required parallelogram.
