Construct a triangle whose perImeter is 6.4 cm, and angles at the base are 60° and 45°.

We are asked to draw triangle ABC whose base angles are 60° and 45° and its perimeter is 6.4 cm



We will follow the following algorithm for the construction


Steps of construction


STEP1: Draw DE of 6.4 cm.


STEP2: Draw EDP = B = 60° and DER = C = 45°.


STEP3: Draw the angle bisectors of EDP and DER and mark their point of intersection as A.


STEP4: Draw the perpendicular bisectors of AD and AE. They meet DE at point B and Point C respectively.


STEP5: Draw AB and AC to get the required triangle ABC.
