Q1. Construct the following quadrilaterals.
(iv) Rhombus BEST
BE = 4.5 cm
ET = 6 cm
Given,
BEST is a rhombus where:
BE = 4.5 cm
ET = 6 cm (diagonal)
We know that the sides of a rhombus are equal in length and opposite sides are parallel to each other.
Therefore, the sides of Rohmbus BE = ES = ST = TB = 4.5 cm
Step 1. Using SSS condition ,draw
Step 2. Now, ES = 4.5 cm . Using E as centre, draw an arc of radius = 4.5 cm
Step 3. Also, TS = 4.5 cm . Using T as centre, draw an arc of radius = 4.5 cm.
Step 4. Point S will be the point of intersection of the two drawn arcs. Join ES and TS to complete the rhombus.
BEST is the required rhombus.
