Mathematics
Construct a rectangle ABCD; if:
AB = 5.0 cm and diagonal AC = 6.7 cm.
Answer
Steps:
Draw AB = 5 cm.
At B, construct angle PBA = 90°.
Taking A as centre, draw an arc of radius 6.7 cm (= AC) which cuts BP at point C.
Taking C as centre, draw an arc of radius 5 cm (= AB) and taking A as centre draw another arc of radius equal to BC. Let these two arcs intersect at point D.
Join AD and CD.
Hence, ABCD is the required rectangle.
