1. Draw any line segment . Without measuring
, construct a copy of
.
Solutions:
Step 1: Let the given line segment be
Step 2: Draw a line l and mark a point A on it.
Step 3: Open the compass equal to PQ.
Step 4: Place the needle of the compass at A and mark a point B on l.
Thus, is a copy of
.
2. Given some line segment , whose length you do not know, construct
such that the length of
is twice that of
.
Solutions:
Following steps are followed to construct a line segment such that the length of
is twice that of
.
Step 1: Draw of any suitable length.
Step 2: Place the needle of the compass at A and the other pencil end at B.
Step 3: Draw a line l and take a point P on it.
Step 4: With the same opening of the compass, place the needle at P and mark another point Q on l.
Thus is the required line segment whose length is twice the length of
i.e
= 2
.
