Construct a right-angled triangle whose perimeter is equal to $10\ cm$ and one acute angle equal to $60^o$.
Given:
A right-angled triangle whose perimeter is equal to $10\ cm$ and one acute angle equal to $60^o$.
To do:
We have to construct the given triangle.
Solution:
Steps of construction:
(i) Draw a line segment $PQ = 10\ cm$.
(ii) At $P$, draw a ray $PX$ making an angle of $90^o$ and at $Q, QY$ making an angle of $60^o$.
(iii) Draw the angle bisectors of $\angle P$ and $\angle Q$ meeting each other at $A$.
(iv) Draw the perpendicular bisectors of $AP$ and $AQ$ intersecting $PQ$ at $B$ and $C$ respectively,
(v) Join $AB$ and $AC$.
Therefore,
$\triangle ABC$ is the required triangle.
