Right Answer is:

SOLUTION

Construction : 2 Marks
Steps of construction : 1 Mark



Steps of construction :

1.Construct Δ ABC with given measurments.

2. Construct an acute angle CBZ at B on opposite side of vertex A of Δ ABC.

3. Mark-off four (greater 4 of and 3 in 43) points B1,B2,B3,B4 on BZ such that
    BB1=B1B2=B2B3=B3B4

4. Join B3 (the third point) to C and draw a line through B4C parallel to B3C, intersecting the extended line segment BC at C'.

5. Draw a line through C' parallel to CA intersecting the extended line segment AB at A'.

6. Triangle A'BC' so obtained is the required triangle.
