Question
Draw a line segment $PQ = 6.2\ cm$. Draw the perpendicular bisector of $PQ.$

Answer


Steps for construction:
$i.\ $Draw a line segment $PQ$, which is equal $6.2\ cm.$
$ii.\ $With $P$ as the centre and radius more than half of $PQ$, draw arcs, one on each side of $PQ.$
$iii.\ $With $Q$ as the centre and the same radius as before, draw arcs cutting the perviously drawn arcs at $A$ and $B,$ respectively.
$iv.\ $Draw $AB$, meeting $PQ$ at $R.$
