Question

Construct a rhombus PQRS whose diagonals are PR = 8 cm and QS = 10 cm.

Answer 1

Construction

Step 1. First draw PR = 8 cm.

Step 2. Draw perpendicular bisector of diagonal PR, which meets PR at O.

Step 3. Taking O is as centre, an arc OQ = OS = 5 cm is drawn which intersect the perpendicular bisector. Join PQ, QR, RS and PS.

Hence, we get the required rhombus PQRS.
