Construct a right-angled triangle whose hypotenuse is $6\ cm$ long and one of the legs is $4\ cm$ long.
Given: A right-angled triangle whose hypotenuse is $6\ cm$ long and one of the legs is $4\ cm$ long.
To do: To construct a right-angled triangle whose hypotenuse is $6\ cm$ long and one of the legs is $4\ cm$ long.
Steps of construction:
- Let us draw a line segment $EF$ of length $4\ cm$.
- At $E$, draw $EX$ such that $EX\perp EF$.
- Assuming $F$ as the center, let us draw an arc of radius $6\ cm$ that will intersect $EX$ at point $D$.
- Now, join $D$ and $F$.
$\triangle DEF$ is the required triangle.
