Marks: +1, -0

Construct a

\triangle A B C

in which

B C = 6.5

\text{cm}, \angle A B C = 60^{\circ}, A B = 5 \text{cm}

Solution:

Steps of construction :

1. Draw a line

BC = 6.5 \text{cm}

2. At B, make a angle of

60^{\circ}

with BC.

3. Taking

B

as centre, cut an arc of 5

\text{cm}

i.e. point A.

4. Join AC.

Thus

ABC

is a required triangle.
