Q5. - Geometry

Question

Draw a figure roughly like one shown, but larger. Do the indicated construction clearly enough so that your method can be understood easily.

The parallel to $\overleftrightarrow{ED}$ through $F$.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

Step 1. Given information.

Step 2. Concept used.

Draw by using compass.

Step 3. Construction.

Step 1: Make an arc as shown in figure between lines $ED$ and $EF$ from $E$.

Step 2: Copy an arc through the extended line $EF$ from $F$.

Step 3: Measure the original arc from one line to other line, and duplicate that measurement on a new constructed arc and name that intersecting point $G$.

Step 4: Join $F$ and $G$, which will be the required line.
