Expert Answer
To construct the rectangle we go through the following steps:
i) Draw PQ = 8 cm.
ii) At Q, draw ∠PQK = 90°.
iii) With P as centre and radius 10 cm, draw an arc cutting QK at R.
iv) With R as centre and radius 8 cm, draw an arc.
v) With P as centre and radius = QR, draw an arc cutting the arc drawn in Step 4 at S.
vi) Join QS and PS.
PQRS is the required rectangle
