Expert Answer
In the third question, the difference between two sides of the triangle is given and when the difference is given, two cases arise. The two are given below:
Eg: Construct a triangle with base of length 7.5 cm, the difference of the other two sides 2.5 cm, and one base angle of 45°
Given : In ΔABC, base BC = 7.5 cm, the difference of the other two sides, AB – AC or AC – AB = 2.5 cm and one base angle is 45°.
Required : To construct the ΔABC,
CASE (i) AB – AC = 2.5 cm.
Steps of Construction:
- Draw BC = 7.5 cm.
- At B, construct angleCBX = 45°.
- From BX, cut off BD = 2.5 cm.
- Join CD.
- Draw the perpendicular bisector RS of CD intersecting BX at a point A.
- Join AC. Then, ABC is the required triangle.
CASE (ii) AC – AB = 2.5 cm
Steps of Construction:
- Draw BC = 7.5 cm.
- At B, construct angleCBX = 45° and produce XB to form a line XBX’.
- From BX’, cut off BD’ = 2.5 cm.
- Join CD’.
- Draw perpendicular bisector RS of CD’ intersecting BX at a point A.
Join AC. Then, ABC is the required triangle.
