Question 1.
Construct a quadrilateral ABCD given that AB = 4 cm, BC = 3 cm, ∠A = 75°, ∠B = 80° and ∠C = 120°.
Solution:
Steps of construction :
(i) Draw a line segment AB = 4 cm.

(ii) At A draw a ray AX making an angle of 75°.
(iii) At B draw another ray BY making an angle of 80° and cut off BC = 3 cm.
(iv) At C, draw another ray CZ making an angle of 120° which intersects AX at D.
Then ABCD is the required quadrilateral.

Question 2.
Construct a quadrilateral ABCD where AB = 5.5 cm, BC = 3.7 cm, ∠A = 60°, ∠B = 105° and ∠D = 90°.
Solution:
∠A = 60°, ∠B = 105° and ∠D = 90°
But ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360° (Sum of angles of a quadrilateral)
⇒ 60° + 105° + ∠C + 90° = 360°
⇒ 255° + ∠C = 360°
⇒ ∠C = 360° – 255° = 105°
Steps of construction :
(i) Draw a line segment AB = 5.5 cm.
(ii) At A, draw a ray AX making an angle of

(iii) At B, draw another ray BY making an angle of 105° and cut off BC = 3.7 cm.
(iv) At C, draw a ray CZ making an angle of 105° which intersects AX at D.
Then ABCD is the required quadrilateral.

Question 3.
Construct a quadrilateral PQRS where PQ = 3.5 cm, QR = 6.5 cm, ∠P = ∠R = 105° and ∠S = 75°.
Solution:
∠P = 105°, ∠R = 105° and ∠S = 75°
But ∠P + ∠Q + ∠R + ∠S = 360° (Sum of angles of a quadrilateral)
⇒ 105° + ∠Q + 105° + 75° = 360°
⇒ 285° + ∠Q = 360°
⇒ ∠Q = 360° – 285° = 75°
Steps of construction :
(i) Draw a line segment PQ = 3.5 cm.

(ii) At P, draw a ray PX making an angle of 105°.
(iii) At Q, draw another ray QY, making an angle of 75° and cut off QR = 6.5 cm.
(iv) At R, draw a ray RZ making an angle of 105° which intersects PX at S.
Then PQRS is the required quadrilateral.

Question 4.
Construct a quadrilateral ABCD when BC = 5.5 cm, CD = 4.1 cm, ∠A = 70°, ∠B = 110° and ∠D = 85°.
Solution:
∠A = 70°, ∠B = 110°, ∠D = 85°
But ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360° (Sum of angles of a quadrilateral)
⇒ 70° + 110° + ∠C + 85° = 360°
⇒ 265° + ∠C = 360°
⇒ ∠C = 360° – 265° = 95°
Steps of construction:
(i) Draw a line segment BC = 5.5 cm.
(ii) At B, draw a ray BX making an angle of 110°.
(iii) At C, draw another ray CY making an angle of 95° and cut off CD = 4.1 cm.
(iv) At D, draw a ray DZ making an angle of 85° which intersects BX at A.

Then ABCD is the required quadrilateral.

Question 5.
Construct a quadrilateral ABCD, where ∠A = 65°, ∠B = 105°, ∠C = 75°, BC = 5.7 cm and CD = 6.8 cm.
Solution:
∠A = 65°, ∠B = 105°, ∠C = 75°
But ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360° (Sum of angles of a quadrilateral)
⇒ 65° + 105° + 75° + ∠D = 360°
⇒ 245° + ∠D = 360°
⇒ ∠D = 360° – 245° = 115°
Steps of construction:
(i) Draw a line segment BC = 5.7 cm.
(ii) At B, draw a ray BX making an angle of

(iii) At C draw a another ray CY making an angle of 75° and cut off CD = 6.8 cm.
(iv) At D, draw a ray DZ making an angle of 115° which intersects BX at A.
Then ABCD is the required quadrilateral.

Question 6.
Construct a quadrilateral PQRS in which PQ = 4 cm, QR = 5 cm, ∠P = 50°, ∠Q = 110° and ∠R = 70°.
Solution:
Steps of construction :
(i) Draw a line segment PQ = 4 cm.
(ii) At P, draw a ray PX making an angle of 50°.
(iii) At Q, draw another ray QY making an angle of 110° and cut off QR = 5 cm.
(iv) At R, draw a ray RZ making an angle of 70° which intersects PX at S.

Then PQRS is the required quadrilateral.
