Chapter 14: Practical Geometry

Exercise – 14.4

1. Draw any line segment . Mark any point M on it. Through M, draw a perpendicular to . (use ruler and compasses)

Solutions :

Step 1: Draw a line segment  and mark any point M on it.

Step 2: Put the pointer of the compass at M and draw an arc of suitable radius such that it intersects  at P and Q.
Step 3: Take P and Q as centres and radius greater than PM, draw two arcs such that they intersect each other at C.
Step 4: Join M and C.
Thus CM is the perpendicular to .

2. Draw any line segment . Take any point R not on it. Through R, draw a perpendicular to . (Use ruler and set square).

Solutions:

Step 1: Draw a line segment and a point R outside of .

Step 2: Place a set square on  such that one side of its right angle be along it.
Step 3: Place a ruler along the longer side of the set square.

Step 4: Hold the ruler fix and slide the set square along the ruler till it touches the point R.
Step 5: Join RM along the edge through R.
Thus ⊥ .

3. Draw a line l and a point X on it. Through X, draw a line segment perpendicular to l. Now draw a perpendicular to  at y. (Use ruler and compasses)

Solutions:

Step 1: Draw a line l and take a point X on it.

Step 2: Draw an arc with centre X and of suitable radius to intersect the line l at two points P and Q.
Step 3: With P and Q as centres and a radius greater than P draw two arcs to intersect each other at M.
Step 4: Join XM and produce to Y.
Step 5: With Y as centre and a suitable radius, draw an arc to intersect XY at two points R and S.
Step 6: With R and S as centres and a radius greater than YR, draw two arcs to intersect each other at A.
Step 7: Join Y and A.
Thus .
