Question
Construct a rectangle $\text{ABCD}$, when $AB = 5\ cm$ and $BC = 6.2\ cm.$
✓
Answer
Steps of construction:
$1$. Draw $B C=6.2 \ cm$
$2$. Through $B$, draw $B P$ such that $\angle B=90^{\circ}$
$3$. From $B P$, cut $B A=5 \ cm$
$4$. With $A$ and $C$ as centres and radii $6.2 \ cm$ and $5 \ cm$ respectively, draw arcs cutting each other at $D$.
$5$. Join $A D$ and $C D$.
Thus, $\text{ABCD}$ is the required triangle.
