Question
Construct the 8-petaled figure shown below.
✓
Answer
Draw a line AB.
With centres at A and B, draw arcs of equal radius above and below the line AB.
Let the arcs intersect at the points C and D.
Join C and D.
Let AB and CD intersect at O.
Draw the bisectors of ∠BOC, ∠COA, ∠AOD, and ∠DOB as shown in the figure.
Draw a circle with centre at O and radius equal to the length of a petal in the given figure.
Draw dots at the points of intersection of the circle with the lines.
Using the dots and the centre of the circle, draw the petals as shown in the given figure.
In the next step, we erase the extra lines and arcs.
The above figure looks as given below:
