MATHS [2 Mark Question Answer]

Steps of Construction:

Take points A and B 5.5 cm apart draw perpendicular bisect of the line segment AB. The perpendicular bisector PQ is the required line of symmetry with respect to A and B. PQ is the perpendicular bisector of AB.

Draw PQ perpendicular to AB from PO produced cut OQ = OP.
Point Q is symmetric to the given point P with respect to the given line AB.

Draw PO perpendicular to AB from P and produce PO to Q such that OQ = PO.
Point Q is symmetric to the given point P with respect to the given line AB.

Draw PQ perpendicular to AB from PO produced cut OQ = OP.
Point Q is symmetric to the given point P with respect to the given line AB.
