Construct a right angled isosceles triangle with one side (other than hypotenuse) of length 4.5 cm.

Answer:

Steps of Construction:

Step I: Firstly, we draw a rough sketch of triangle with given measure marked on it.

Step I: Draw a line segment AB of length 4.5cm.

Step II: Draw an angle of 90° on point B and produce it to Y. 1

Step III: With B as centre, draw an arc of 4.5 cm which intersects ray BY to C.

Step IV: Join CA.

Thus, ΔABC is the required right angled isosceles triangle.
