Question
Construct a triangle using the following data: $XY + YZ = 5.6 \ cm, XZ = 4.5 \ cm$ and $\angle X = 45^\circ $
✓
Answer
$XY + YZ = 5.6 \ cm, XZ = 4.5 \ cm$ and $\angle X = 45^\circ $
Steps of construction:
$1$. Draw a line segment $XZ = 4.5 \ cm$
$2$. With $X$ as centre, construct $\angle SXZ = 45^\circ $
$3$. Cut $XT = 5.6 \ cm$ on $XS.$
$4$. Join $TZ.$
$5$. Draw perpendicular bisector of $TZ$ which cuts $XT$ at $Y$.
$6.$ Join $YZ.$
Thus $\text{XYZ}$ is the required triangle.
