Question
Construct a quadrilateral ABCD in which AB = 3.6cm, BC = 3.3cm, AD = 2.7cm, diagonal AC = 4.6cm and diagonal BD = 4cm.

Answer


Steps of construction:
Step 1: Draw AB = 3.6cm.
Step 2: With B as the centre and radius equal to 4cm, draw an arc.
Step 3: With A as the centre and radius equal to 2.7cm, draw another arc, cutting the previous arc at D.
Step 4: Join BD and AD.
Step 5: With A as the centre and radius equal to 4.6cm, draw an arc.
Step 6: With B as the centre and radius equal to 3.3cm, draw another arc, cutting the previous arc at C.
Step 7: Join AC, BC and CD.
Thus, ABCD is the required quadrilateral.
