Question

Construct a right-angled triangle whose hypotenuse is 6 cm long and one of the legs is 4 cm long.

Answer 1

Steps of construction :

1. Draw QR = 4 cm

2. Make ∠XQR = 90° at point Q.

3. Make an arc of 6 cm from point Q which cuts QX at point P.

4. Join RP

Thus ∆PQR is required triangle.
