Draw a line segment of length 8.6 cm. Bisect it and measure the length of each part. -Maths 9th

1 Answer

Answer :

 Draw a line segment AB of length 8.6 cm. With A as centre and radius more than half of AB, draw arcs on both sides of AB. With the same radius and B as centre, draw arcs on the both sides of AB, cutting the previous two arcs at E and F. Draw a line segment from E to F intersecting AB at C. On measuring AC and BC, we get: AC=BC=4.3 cm.
