Question
Construct a $\triangle\text{ABC}$ in which $BC = 5.3cm$, $\angle\text{B}=60^\circ$ and $AB = 4.2cm$. Also, draw the perpendicular bisector of $AC.$

Answer


Steps of construction:
Step 1: Draw $BC = 5.3cm$
Step 2: Construct $\angle\text{CBX}=60^\circ$
Step 3: With $B$ as the centre and radius $4.2cm$, cut the ray $BX$ at point $A.$​​​​​​​
Step 4: Join $A$ and $C.$​​​​​​​
Step 5: With $A$ as the centre and radius more than half of $AC$, draw an arc on either side of $AC.$​​​​​​​
Step 6: With $C$ as the centre and the same radius, draw another arc cutting the previously drawn arc at $M$ and $N.$​​​​​​​
Step 7: Join $M$ and $N.$

The value of the expression $(10 y-20)$ depends on the value of $y$. Verify this by giving five different values to $y$ and finding for each $y$ the value of $(10 y-20)$. From the different values of $(10 y-20)$ you obtain, do you see a solution to $10 y-20=50$ ?
If there is no solution, try giving more values to $y$ and find whether the condition $10 y-20=50$ is met.
