Mathematics
Construct a parallelogram ABCD, if :
AD = 4 cm, DC = 5 cm and diagonal BD = 7 cm.
Answer
Steps:
Draw AD = 4 cm.
Taking D as centre, draw an arc of radius 7 cm (= diagonal BD) and taking A as centre draw one more arc of radius 5 cm (= AB). Let the two arcs intersect at point B. Join A and B.
Taking B as centre, draw an arc of radius 4 cm (= BC) and taking D as centre draw one more arc of radius 5 cm (= DC). Let the two arcs intersect at point C.
Join DC and BC.
Hence, ABCD is the required parallelogram.
