Construct an isosceles triangle with base 8 cm and altitude 4 cm. Construct another triangle whose sides are 2/3 times the corresponding sides of the isosceles triangle.


Steps of Construction

Step 1. Draw a line segment BC = 8 cm.

Step 2. Draw the perpendicular bisector XY of BC, cutting BC at D.

Step 3. With D as centre and radius 4 cm, draw an arc cutting XY at A.

Step 4. Join AB and AC. Here, ∆ABC is isosceles whose base is 8 cm and the altitude is 4 cm.

Step 5. Below BC, draw an acute angle ∠CBX.

Step 6. Along BX, mark three points B1, B2 and B3 such that BB1 = B1B2 = B2B3.

Step 7. Join CB3.

Step 8. From B2, draw B2C' || CB3 meeting BC at C'.

Step 9. From C', draw A'C' || AC meeting AB in A'.
