TO CONSTRUCT A PERPENDICULAR LINE AT A GIVEN POINT
TO CONSTRUCT A PERPENDICULAR LINE AT A GIVEN POINT
1. Draw line AB with the given measurement
2. Mark the given point “C”
3. Making “C” the center and taking radius of your choice, draw semi-circle “D E”
4. Taking center “D” and “E”, and radius greater than the radius of the semi-circle, draw an arc with point “D” and “E” to intersect at “F”
5. Join the point of intersection at “F” with “C” to form a perpendicular line to “AB”
NB: the arcs and semi-circles are drawn using thin/faint lines, while the outlines are ”AB” and “FC”(Thick lines).
