Hint

To draw a line perpendicular to AB through A and B, respectively. Use the following steps of construction.
1. Draw a line segment AB = 4 cm.
2.Taking 4 as centre and radius more than $\dfrac{1}{2}$ AB (i.e., 2 cm) draw an arc say it intersect AB at E.
3.Taking E as centre and with same radius as above draw an arc which intersect previous arc at F.
Again, taking F as centre and with same radius as above draw an arc which intersect previous arc (obtained in step ii) at G.
5.Taking G and F are centres, draw arcs which intersect each other at H.
6.Join AH . Thus, AX is perpendicular to AB at A. Similarly, draw BY $\bot$ AB at B.
Now, we know that if two lines are parallel, then the angle between them will be 0°
or
180°.
Here, $\angle XAB = 90^o [\therefore XA \bot AB]$
and $\angle YBA = 90^o\ [ \therefore\ YB \bot AB]$
$\angle XAB+ \angle YBA = 90^o + 90^o = 180^o$
So, the lines XA and YS are parallel.

Grading can be reviewed and adjusted.

Hint

1. Draw a line segment BC of length 4.8 cm.
2. From B, point A is at a distance of 3.6 cm. So, having B as centre, draw an arc of radius 3.6 cm.
3. From C, point A is at a distance of 3 cm. So, having C as centre, draw an arc of radius 3 cm which intersect previous arc at A.
4. Join AB and AC. Thus, $\triangle$ ABC is the required triangle.
Flere, angle B is smallest, as AC is the smallest side. To direct angle B, we use the following steps.
1.Taking B as centre, we draw an are intersecting AB and BC at D and E, respectively.
2.Taking D and E as centres we draw arcs intersecting at P.
3. Joining BP, we obtain angle bisector of $\angle$ B.
4. Flere, $\mathrm{\angle ABC=39^o}$
Thus, $\mathrm{\angle ABD = \angle DBC = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 139^o = 19.5^o}$

Hint

Let given right triangle be ABC.
Then, given BC = 3.5 cm, $\angle$ B = 90° and sum of other side and hypotenuse i.e., AB + AC = 5.5 cm To construct $\triangle$ ABC use the following steps
1. Draw the base BC = 3.5 cm
2. Make an angle XBC = 90° at the point B of base BC.
3. Cut the line segment BD equal to AB + AC i.e., 5.5 cm from the ray XB.
4. Join DC and make an $\angle$ DCY equal to $\angle$ BDC.
5. Let Y intersect BX at A.
Thus, $\triangle$ ABC is the required triangle.
Justification
Base BC and $\angle$ B are drawn as given.
In $\triangle$ ACD, $\angle$ ACD = $\angle$ ADC [by construction]
AD = AC …(i)
[sides opposite to equal angles are equal] Now, AB = BD – AD = BD – AC [from Eq. (i)]
$\Rightarrow$ BD = AB + AC
Thus, our construction is justified.

Hint

We know that, all sides of a rhombus are equal and the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors of one another.
So, to construct a rhombus whose diagonals are 4 cm and 6 cm use the following steps.
1. Draw the diagonal say AC = 4 cm
2. Taking A and C as centres and radius more than $\dfrac{1}{2}$ AC draw arcs on both sides of the line segment AC to intersect each other.
3. Cut both arcs intersect each other at P and Q, then join PQ.
4. Let PQ intersect AC at the point O. Thus, PQ is perpendicular bisector of AC.
5. Cut off 3 cm lengths from OP and OQ, then we get points B and D.
Now, join AB, BC, CD, and DA.
Thus, ABCD is the required rhombus.
