Step 3: Placing pointer at C drawn the arc on ‘l’ with pencil pointer
Step 4: CD is the required line segment of length 3.6 cm

(iii) $$\overline{\mathrm{QR}}=10 \mathrm{cm}$$

Construction:
Step 1: Drawn a line ‘l’ and marked the point Q on it
Step 2: Measured 10 cm using a compass by placing the pointer at ‘0’ and pencil pointer at 10 cm.
Step 3: Placing pointer at Q drawn the arc on ‘l’ with pencil pointer and named the point R
Step 4: QR is the required line segments of 10 cm.
