GEOMETRICAL

CONSTRUCTIONS
1 Construct triangle ABC in which AB = 10 cm,
AC = 12 cm and BC = 9 cm.

C
Draw AB =10 cm
With your compass point on A,
draw an arc radius 12 cm.
With your compass point on B, draw
an arc radius 9 cm.
12 cm 9 cm
Label the point of intersection of
the two arcs as C.
Draw the lines AC and BC.

A 10 cm B
2 Construct an angle of 600 at A.

With your compass point on A,


Y draw an arc to cut the line AB at X.
With your compass point on X, draw
an arc with the same radius to
intersect the first arc at Y.

Draw the line AY.


Angle BAY = 60o.

60o
A X B
3 Construct the bisector of angle ABC.

With your compass point on B,


draw an arc to intersect the
lines at P and Q.
C
With the same radius, draw
arcs from P and Q to intersect
each other at R.
Q
R Draw the line BR.
Angle ABR = Angle CBR.

B P A
4 Construct the perpendicular bisector of the line AB.

With your compass point on A,


P draw an arc.

Using the same radius and


your compass point on B, draw
B an arc to intersect the first arc
at P and Q.

Draw the line PQ.


PQ is the perpendicular
A bisector of AB.
