such that OC = OA.
(ii) At O, construct ∠COP = 45°.

(iii) From OP, cut OD = 1/2 BD = 1/2 × 4·6 cm = 2·3 cm.
(iv) Produce OD to OB such that OB = OD.
(v) Join AB, BC, CD and DA, then
ABCD is the required to parallelogram.

(iv) With C as centre and radius = 5·6 cm draw an arc.
(v) With A as centre and radius = 4 cm,
draw an arc to meet the previous arc at D
(vi) Join AD and CD. Then ABCD is the required rectangle

Question 6. Construct a rectangle such that one side is 5 cm and one diagonal is 6·8 cm.

Answer:

Steps of construction :

(i) Draw AB = 5 cm.
(ii) At A, construct ∠BAP = 90°.
(iii) With B as centre and radius = 6·8 cm,
draw an arc to meet AP at D.
(iv) With A as centre and radius = 6·8 cm draw an arc.
(v) With D as centre and radius = 5 cm,
