Answer

Steps of construction :

  1. Draw a line segment AB = 8.6 cm

  2. Construct ∠ABX = 45°.

  3. From B draw an arc of length 9.8 cm intersecting BX at C.

  4. Join AC.

  5. Draw angle bisector of ∠A.

  6. At a distance of 2.5 cm from AB draw a line parallel to AB which intersects angle bisector at O.

  7. Draw a circle with centre O which touches the arms of ∠BAC.

Using ruler and compasses only construct (i) a triangle ABC in which angle ABC = 45°, AB = 8.6 cm and BC = 9.8 cm (ii) construct a circle of radius 2.5 cm which touches the arms of the angle BAC of △ABC given above. Model Paper 4, Concise Mathematics Solutions ICSE Class 10.
