Construct the following quadrilaterals.

(i) Quadrilateral LIFT

LI = 4 cm

IF = 3 cm

TL = 2.5 cm

LF = 4.5 cm

IT = 4 cm

(ii) Quadrilateral GOLD

OL = 7.5 cm

GL = 6 cm

GD = 6 cm

LD = 5 cm

OD = 10 cm

(iii) Rhombus BEND

BN = 5.6 cm

DE = 6.5 cm

I have taken points as;

Quadrilateral GOLD

OL = 7.5 cm

GL = 6 cm

GD = 6 cm

LD = 5 cm

OD = 10 cm



A rough sketch of this quadrilateral can be drawn as follows.

(1) Δ GDL can be constructed by using the given measurements as follows.

(2) Vertex O is 10 cm away from vertex D and 7.5 cm away from vertex L. Therefore, while taking D and L as centres, draw arcs of 10 cm radius and 7.5 cm radius respectively. These will intersect each other at point O.

(3) Join O to G and L.

GOLD is the required quadrilateral.
