Construction Steps:

  1. Draw a line segment \(\overline{OL}\) equal to radius 7.5 cm.
  2. With the centres O, L draw arcs with radius 10 cm and 5 cm respectively. These two arcs meet at point ‘D’.
  3. With the centres L, D draw arcs equal to 6 cm and 5.5 cm respectively. These two arcs meet at point ‘G’.
  4. Join O, G and L, G. Also join O, D and L, D and G, D.
  5. ∴ The required quadrilateral GOLD is formed.

Construction Steps:

  1. Draw a line segment \(\overline{P Q}\) with radius 4.2 cm.
  2. With the centres P, Q draw arcs equal to the radius 4.5 cm, 3 cm respectively. These two arcs meet at point R’. Join P, R and Q, R.
  3. With the centres Q, P draw arcs equal to the radii 5 cm and 2.8 cm respectively. These two arcs meet at point ‘S’.
  4. Join P, S and Q, S and S, R.
  5. ∴ The required PQRS quadrilateral is formed.
