Question
Construct a kite ABCD in which AB = 4cm, BC = 4.9cm and AC = 7.2cm.
✓
Answer
Steps of construction:
Step I: Draw AC = 7.2cm.
Step II: With A as the centre and radius 4cm, draw arcs on both sides of the line segment AC.
Step III: With C as the centre and radius 4.9cm, draw arcs on both sides of AC intersecting the previous arcs of step II at B and D.
Step IV: Join BA, DA, BC and CD. Thus, the quadrilateral ABCD so obtained is the required kite.
