Draw a line segment equal to the sum of two line segment given in figu

1.	Draw a line segment equal to the sum of two line segment given in figures
Answer» 1. Draw a line l and on it, cut a line segment PQ = AB, using compasses. 2. With Q as CENTRE and CD as radius, draw an ARC to cut a line segment QS = CD on l 3. Then, line segment PS is equal to the sum of AB and CD, i.e., PS = AB + CDR

Answer»

1. Draw a line l and on it, cut a line segment PQ = AB, using compasses.

2. With Q as CENTRE and CD as radius, draw an ARC to cut a line segment QS = CD on l

3. Then, line segment PS is equal to the sum of AB and CD, i.e., PS = AB + CDR
