Draw a right angle triangle ABC, with AB = 4.5, AC = 7.5 and angle B = 90°. Construct another triangle A'BC' whose corresponding sides are 5/3 times the given triangle. Write the steps of construction also.

Dear Student,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

We follow these steps to construct triangle from given information  :

Step 1 :  Draw a line AB =  4.5  cm .

Step 2 :  Take any radius (  Less than half of AB ) and center " B "  we draw a semicircle that intersect our line AB at " P " . With same radius take center "  P "  draw an arc that intersect our semicircle at " Q " And with same radius take center "  Q "  draw an arc that intersect our semicircle at " R " .

Step 3 :  With same radius take center "  Q "  and " R " draw two arcs that intersect each other at  " S " .

Step 4 :  Join line BS ,and extend it to " T " .  we get line LT

Step 5 :  Take radius of 7.5 cm and center "  A "  draw an arc that intersect our line BT at " C " .

Step 6 :  Join AC we get our right angle triangle ABC .

Part II : We follow these steps to construct  another triangle whose side is 53times the corresponding sides of given triangle ABC .

Step 1 :  Extend line BA to M we get line BM .

             
Step 2 : Draw a line BN  As  MBN is any acute angle and draw five equal radius arc on line BN that intersect at X1 . X2 , X3 , X4 and X5 AS :

 BX1  = X1 X2 = X2 X3 = X3X4 = X4X5

Step 3 : Join X3 to A and than draw a line from X5  as parallel to X3A that intersect our line BM at A' .

Step 4 : Draw line from A' as parallel to AC that intersect line BT at C'  .

We get another triangle A'BC'  whose side is 53 times the corresponding sides of given triangle ABC .

draw line AB=4.5 construct angle 90° to B  
now draw an arc of lenght 7.5 from A
the point where arc intersects the other side of angle 90° is point C 
join point AC
the ▲ABC is formed


              AB=4.5
    5/3 of AB=4.5*5/3
               AB=7..5
similarly,AC=12.5
similarly we ca construct the other triangle
