Q1. Construct the following quadrilaterals.
(iv) Rectangle OKAY
OK = 7 cm
KA = 5 cm
Given, OKAY is a rectangle.
OK = 7 cm
KA = 5 cm
We know that all four angles of a rectangle are right angles () and opposite sides are equal
Therefore, OK = AY = 7 cm. KA = YO = 5 cm
Steps of construction:
Step 1. Draw a line segment OK = 7 cm. Construct a right angle at K. With K a center, draw an arc of radius = 5 cm. We get to point A.
Step 2. Construct another right angle at A. With A as the center, draw an arc of radius = AY =OK = 7cm. We get the point Y.
Step 3. Join Y to O and Y to A
OKAY is the required rectangle.
