Question
Construct a quadrilateral ABCD in which AB = 4.2cm, BC = 6cm, CD = 5.2cm, DA = 5cm and AC = 8cm.

Answer


Steps of construction:
Step 1: Draw AB = 4.2cm.
Step 2: With A as the centre and radius equal to 8cm, draw an arc.
Step 3: With B as the centre and radius equal to 6cm, draw another arc, cutting the previous arc at C.
Step 4: Join BC.
Step 5: With A as the centre and radius equal to 5cm, draw an arc.
Step 6: With C as the centre and radius equal to 5.2cm, draw another arc, cutting the previous arc at D.
Step 7: Join AD and CD.
Thus, ABCD is the required quadrilateral.
