Draw a line segment AB of length 10 cm. Divide it 4 equal parts and measure the length of each part.
Asked by Topperlearning User | 11th Dec, 2013, 02:50: AM
Expert Answer:
1. Draw a line segment AB = 10 cm.
2. Draw the perpendicular bisector XY of AB, which cut AB at P.
3. Draw the perpendicular bisector of AP, which cut AP at R.
4. Draw the perpendicular bisector of PB, which cut PB at Q.
Measure the length AR, RP, PQ and QB. Each is of length 2.5 cm.

- Draw a line segmeat xy equal to 8 cm. Using compasses and ruler,construct its perpendicular bisector
- Draw a right angle triangle right angled at B. Construct perpendicular bisectors of sides AB and BC, locate the point where they intersect.
- Draw a line segment AB of length 8 cm. Draw its perpendicular bisector and measure both the parts.
- Draw a line segment PQ of length 9.5 cm. Draw its perpendicular bisector. Take any point R on it. Measure the length RP and RQ. Are they equal?
- Draw a circle with centre O and any radius. Join its one diameter CD and construct its perpendicular bisector. Does it pass through centre O?
- Draw a triangle ABC of any measure and then construct a perpendicular from A on BC.
- Draw a circle of any radius and a chord AB in it. Construct a perpendicular from centre to the chord. Does this perpendicular divide the chord in equal parts?
- Draw a line segment XY of any length and then draw its perpendicular bisector.
- Draw any line segment AB. Mark any point P on it. Through P, draw a perpendicular to AB. ( Use ruler and compasses only)
