Q. Using ruler and compasses only. Construct a rhombus ABCD with sides of length 4 cm, and diagonal AC of length 5 cm, measure ABC.
Dear student
We follow these steps to construct rhombus ABCD by given information ( AB = BC = CD = DA = 4 cm and BD = 5 cm )
Step 1 : Draw a line BD = 5 cm
Step 2 : Now take radius of 4 cm and center B and D draw two arcs on both sides of line BD , These arcs intersect at " A " and " D " .
Step 3 : Join AB , AD , BC and DC . We get our required rhombus ABCD .
Now, you can measure ABC with the help of a protactor.
Regards
