Question 4 Construct a rectangle one of whose sides is 3 cm and the diagonal is of length 7 cm.Let’s make a figure For rectangle ABCD Rectangle ABCD where AB = 3 cm AC = 7 cm Let’s draw it Steps of construction 1. Draw side AB of length 3 cm 2. Now, we draw 90° from point A 3. Now, we draw 90° from point B Now, we we open our compass to 8 cm in length And keeping pointy end A, we draw an arc to the line perpendicular from point B Where it intersects is point C Join AC 7. We draw 90° from point C. 8. Where that line intersects perpendicular from A is point D Thus, ABCD is our required rectangle
