Construct the following and give justification :
A right triangle when one side is 3.5 cm and the sum of other sides and the hypotenuse is 5.5 cm.
Given : Side = 3.5 cm, sum of other side and hypotenuse = 5.5 cm
Steps Construction :
3. Cut BE by 5.5 cm radius arc at D.
4. Join DC
5. Bisect DC which intersects BD at point A
6. Join AC
ABC is the required triangle.
Justification :
In DBDC and DABC
AD = AC
Sum of AB + AC = 5.5
