A rhombus whose diagonals are 4 cm and 6 cm in lengths. -Maths 9th

1 Answer

Answer :

we know that , all sides of a rhombus are equal and the diagonals of a rhombus are equal and the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of one another. So, to construct a rhombus whose diagonals are 4cm and 6cm use the following stegs. (i) Draw the diagonal say AC = 4cm (ii) Taking A and C as centres and radius more than 12AC12AC draw arcs on both sides of the line segment AC to intersect each other. (iii) Cut both arcs intersect each other. (iv) Let PQ intersect AC at the point O. Thus , PQ is perpendicular bisector of AC. (v) Cut off 3cm lengths from OP and OQ, then we get points B and D. (vi) Now , join AB, BC, CD, and DA Thus, ABCD is the required rhombus. Justification Since, D and B lie on perpendicular bisector of AC. DA = DC and BA = BC ....(i) [since, every point on perpendicular of line segment is equidistant from end points of line segment] Now, ∠DOC=90∘∠DOC=90∘ Also, OD = OB = 3cm Thus , AC is perpendicular bisector or BD. CD = CB ....(ii) From Eqs. (i) and (ii), AB = BC = CD = DA Hence , ABCD is a rhombus.
