Gujarat Board Textbook Solutions Class 8 Maths Chapter 4 Practical Geometry Ex 4.3

Question 1.
Construct the following quadrilaterals:
(i) Quadrilateral
MORE
MO = 6 cm
OR = 4.5 cm
∠M = 60°
∠O = 105°
∠R = 105°

(ii) Quadrilateral
PLAN
PL = 4 cm
LA = 6.5 cm
∠P = 90°
∠A = 110°
∠N = 85°

(iii) Parallelogram
OKAY
HE = 5 cm
EA = 6 cm
∠R = 85°

(iv) Rectangle
HEAR
OK = 7 cm
KA = 5 cm
Solution:
(i) Steps of constructions:
I. Draw a Line segment MO = 6 cm
II. At M, draw (overrightarrow { MX } ) , such that ∠OMX = 60°
III. At O, draw (overrightarrow { OY } ) , such that ∠MOY = 105°
IV. From (overrightarrow { OY } ) , cut off OR = 4.5 cm
V. At R, draw (overrightarrow { RZ } ) , such that ∠ORZ = 105°
Let (overrightarrow { RZ } ) intersects (overrightarrow { MX } ) at E.

Thus, MORE is the required quadrilateral.

(ii) Steps of construction:
I. Draw a line segment AL = 6.5 cm.
II. At A, draw (overrightarrow { AX } ) such that ∠LAX = 110°
III. At L, draw (overrightarrow { LY } ) such that ∠ALY = 75°.
Note: ∠L = 75° is not given, but we can determine it using angle sum property
∵ Sum of three given angles
= 110° + 90° + 85° = 285°
∴ The fourth angle ∠L = 360° – 285° = 75°

IV. rom (overrightarrow { LY } ) , cut-off LP = 4 cm.
V At P, draw (overrightarrow { PZ } ) such that ∠LPZ = 90°
Let (overrightarrow { PZ } ) and (overrightarrow { AX } ) intersect at N.
Thus, PLAN is the required quadrilateral.

(iii) Steps of construction:
I. Draw a line segment (overrightarrow { HE } ) = 5 cm.

II. At E, draw (overrightarrow { EX } ) such that ∠HEA = 85°.
III. From (overrightarrow { EX } ) , cut-off EA = 6 cm.
IV. With centre at A and radius = 5 cm, draw an arc towards H.
V With centre at H and radius = 6 cm, draw an arc such that it intersects the previous arc at R.
VI. Join RA and RH.
Thus, HEAR is the required parallelogram

(iv) Steps of construction:

I. Draw a line segment Ok = 7 cm
II. draw (overrightarrow { OP } ) such that ∠KOP = 90°.
III. From (overrightarrow { OP } ) , cut-off (overrightarrow { OY } ) = 5 cm.
IV. At K, draw (overrightarrow { KQ } ) such that ∠OKQ = 90°.
V. From (overrightarrow { KQ } ) cut-off KA = 5 cm.
VI. Join A and Y.
Thus, OKAY is the required rectangle
