Construct a quadrilateral ABCD in which AB = AD = 5.3 cm, BC = CD = 5 cm and diagonal BD = 6.4 cm.
Answer
Steps of construction :
Draw AB = 5.3 cm.
Taking A as center, draw an arc of radius 5.3 cm (= AD) and taking B as center, draw one more arc of radius 6.4 cm (= diagonal BD). Let the two arcs intersect at point D.
Taking D as center, draw an arc of radius 5 cm (= CD) and taking B as center, draw one more arc of radius 5cm (= BC). Let the two arcs intersect at point C.
Join DC and BC.
Hence, ABCD is the required quadrilateral.
