Tamilnadu Samacheer Kalvi 7th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 5 Geometry Ex 5.3

Question 1.
Draw a line segment of given length and construct a perpendicular bisector to each line segment using scale and compass
(a) 8 cm
(b) 7 cm
(c) 5.6 cm
(d) 10.4 cm
(e) 58 cm
Solution:
(a) 8 cm
Construction :

Step 1: Drawn a line. Marked two points A and B on it so that AB = 8 cm
Step 2: Using compass with A as centre and radius more than half of the length of AB, drawn two arcs of the same length one above AB and one below AB
Step 3: With the same radius and B as centre drawn two arcs to cut the arcs drawn in step 2. Marked the points of intersection of the arcs as C and D.
step 4: Joined C and D, CD intersect AB. Marked the point of intersection as ‘O’.
CD is the required perpendicular bisector of AB.

step 1: Drawn a line and marked points A and B on it so that AB = 7 cm.
step 2: Using compass with A as centre and radius more than half of the length of AB drawn two arcs of same length one above AB and one below AB.
step 3: With the same radius and B as centre drawn two arcs to cut the already drawn arcs in step 2. Marked the intersection of the arcs as C and D
step 4: Joined C and D, CD is the required perpendicular bisector of AB.

(c) 5.6 cm.
Construction :
Samacheer Kalvi 7th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 5 Geometry Ex 5.3 10
Step 1: Drawn a line and marked two points A and B on it so that AB = 5.6cm
Step 2: Using compass with A as centre and radius more than half of the length of AB, drawn two arcs of the same length, one above AB and one below AB
Step 3: With the same radius and B as centre drawn two arcs to cut the arcs drawn in step 2 and marked the points of intersection of the arcs as C and D
Step 4: Joined C and D. CD intersects AB. Marked the point of intersection as ‘O’CD is the required perpendicular bisector of AB.
Now ∠AOC = 90° AO = BO = 2.8 cm

Step 1: Drawn a line and marked two points A and B on it so that AB = 10.4 cm.
Step 2: Using compass with A as centre and radius more than half of the length of AB, drawn two arcs of same length one above AB and one below AB.
Step 3: With the same radius and B as centre drawn two arcs to cut the arcs drawn in step 2 and marked the points of intersection of the arcs as C and D.
Step 4: Joined C and D. CD intersects AB. Marked the points of intersection as O. CD is the required perpendicular bisector.
Now ∠AOC = 90° ; AO = BO = 5.2 cm

Construction :
Samacheer Kalvi 7th Maths Solutions Term 1 Chapter 5 Geometry Ex 5.3 56
Step 1: Drawn a line. Marked two points A and B on it so that
AB = 5.8 cm = 58 mm.
Step 2: Using compass with A as centre and radius more than half of the length of AB, drawn two arcs of the same length one above AB and one below AB.
Step 3: With the same radius and B as centre drawn two arcs to cut the arcs of drawn in step 2. Marked the points of intersection of the arcs as C and D.
Step 4: Joined C and D. CD intersects AB. Marked the point of intersection as O. CD is the required perpendicular bisector. ∠AOC = 90°
AO = BO = 2.9 cm
