Answer

Step construction:

  1. Draw a line segment AB = 4.8 cm.
  2. At A, draw a ray AZ making an angle of 90° and cut off AL = 2.6 cm.
  3. At L, draw a ray LX parallel to AB.
  4. With centre A and radius 3.6 cm and with centre B and radius 3.1 cm, draw arcs intersecting LX at D and C respectively.
  5. Join AD and BC. Then ABCD is the required trapezium.
Construct a trapezium ABCD when one of parallel sides AB = 4.8 cm, height = 2.6 cm, BC = 3.1 cm and AD = 3.6 cm. Rectilinear Figures, ML Aggarwal Understanding Mathematics Solutions ICSE Class 9.
