Question 1.
\nTake a pair of sticks of equal length, say 8 cm. Take another pair of sticks of equal length, say 6 cm. Arrange them suitably to get a rectangle of length 8 cm and breadth 6 cm. This rectangle is created with the 4 available measurements. Now just push along the breadth of the rectangle. Does it still look alike? You will get a new shape of a rectangle Fig (ii), observe that the rectangle has now become a parallelogram. Have you altered the lengths of the sticks? No! The measurements of sides remain the same.
\n\"AP\"AP
\nGive another push to the newly obtained shape in the opposite direction; what do you get? You again get a parallelogram again, which is altogether different Fig (iii). Yet the four measurements remain the same. This shows that 4 measurements of a quadrilateral cannot determine its uniqueness. So, how many measurements determine a unique quadrilateral? Let us go back to the activity!
\nYou have constructed a rectangle with two sticks each of length 8 cm and other two sticks each of length 6 cm. Now introduce another stick of length equal to BD and put it along BD (Fig iv). If you push the breadth now, does the shape change? No!
\nIt cannot, without making the figure open. The introduction of the fifth stick has fixed the rectangle uniquely, i.e., there is no other quadrilateral (with the given lengths of sides) possible now. Thus, we observe that five measurements can determine a quadrilateral uniquely. But will any five measurements (of sides and angles) be sufficient to draw a unique quadrilateral? (Page No. 60)
\nAnswer:
\nYes, any 5 individual measurements are needed to construct a quadrilateral.<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nEquipment (Page No. 61)
\nYou need: a ruler, a set square, a protractor.
\nRemember: To check if the lines are parallel.
\nSlide set square from the first line to the second line as shown in adjacent figures.
\n\"AP
\nNow let us investigate the following using proper instruments. For each quadrilateral,
\na) Check to see if opposite sides are parallel.
\nb) Measure each angle.
\nc) Measure the length of each side.

Question 3.
\nCan you draw the angle of 60\u00b0?\u00a0 \u00a0 (Page No. 63)
\n\"AP
\nAnswer:
\nUsing a scale and compass,
\nwe can construct 60\u00b0.

Question 4.
\nConstruct the parallelogram above (Refer text book page no: 75) BELT by using other properties of parallelogram. (Page No. 75)
\nAnswer:
\n\"AP
\nWe can construct a parallelogram using the measurements of a side, a diagonal and an angle.
\nBE = 5 cm \u21d2 LT = 5 cm
\n\u2220B = 110\u00b0 \u21d2 \u2220E = 180\u00b0 – 110\u00b0 = 70\u00b0

Question 1.
\nCan you draw a parallelogram BATS where BA = 5 cm, AT = 6 cm and AS = 6.5 cm?\u00a0 \u00a0 (Page No. 70)
\nAnswer:
\n\"AP
\nIn a parallelogram BATS, opposite sides are equal.
\nBA = ST = 5 cms
\nAT = BS 6 cms
\nAS = 6.5 cms
\n\"AP
\n\u2234 So, we can construct BATS parallelogram. It needs only three measurements.<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nA student attempted to draw a quadrilateral PLAY given that PL = 3 cm, LA = 4 cm, AY = 4.5 cm, PY = 2 cm and LY = 6 cm. But he was not able to draw it why ?
\nTry to draw the quadrilateral yourself and give reason. (Page No. 70)
\nAnswer:
\nIn a quadrilateral PLAY
\nPL = 3 cm LA = 4 cm AY = 4.5 cm
\nPY = 2 cm LY = 6 cm
\nHere YP + PL < YL [\u2235 2 + 3 < 6 \u21d2 5 < 6]
\n\"AP
\nBut in a \u25b3YPL, the sum of two sides is less than the third side.
\n\u2234 We are unable to construct a quadrilateral PLAY [\u2235 YL > YP]
\n[\u2235 The arcs do not intersect which are drawn from L and P, also Y, P, L are collinear points]<\/p>\n

Question 1.
\nIs every rectangle a parallelogram? Is every parallelogram a rectangle?\u00a0 \u00a0 (Page No. 63)
\nAnswer:
\nYes, every rectangle is a parallelogram. But every parallelogram is not a rectangle.<\/p>\n

Question 2.
\nUma has made a sweet chikki. She wanted it to be rectangular. In how many different ways can she verify that it is rectangular?\u00a0 \u00a0 (Page No. 63)
\nAnswer:
\nIf the sweet chikki is to made into a rectangular shape, she has to verify the following shapes:<\/p>\n

    \n

  3. Parallelogram<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Question 3.
    \nCan you draw the quadrilateral ABCD with AB = 4.5 cm, BC = 5.2 cm, CD = 4.8 cm and diagonals AC = 5 cm, BD = 5.4 cm by constructing \u25b3ABD first and then fourth vertex ‘C’ ? Give reason.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0(Page No. 72)
    \nAnswer:
    \nWe cannot construct \u25b3ABD. So, if we start first from \u25b3ABD, it is impossible to construct \u25a1 ABCD.
    \n[\u2235 The length of \\(\\overline{\\mathrm{AD}}\\) is not given]<\/p>\n

    Question 4.
    \nConstruct a quadrilateral PQRS with PQ = 3 cm, RS = 3 cm, PS = 7.5 cm, PR = 8 cm and SQ = 4 cm. Justify your result.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 (Page No. 72)
    \nAnswer:
    \n\"AP
    \nPQ = 3 cm
    \nRS = 3 cm
    \nPS = 7.5 cm
    \nPR = 8 cm
    \nSQ = 4 cm
    \nWith the given measurements \u25b3PQS is not possible to construct.
    \n\u2235 PQ + QS < PS
    \nThe arcs which drawn from P and Q are not intersecting.
    \n\u2234 We can\u2019t obtain vertex ‘S’.
    \n\u2234 Without vertex ‘S’ we can’t get a quadrilateral PQRS.<\/p>\n

    Question 5.
    \nCan you construct the quadrilateral PQRS, if we have an angle of 100\u00b0 at P instead of 75\u00b0? Give reason. (Page No. 74)
    \nAnswer:
    \n\"AP
    \nPQ = 4 cm,
    \nQR = 4.8 cm,
    \nZP = 100\u00b0,
    \nZQ = 100\u00b0,
    \nZR = 120\u00b0
    \n\u2234 We can construct a quadrilateral with the given measurements.
    \nSince the sum of 4 angles is equal to 360\u00b0.

      \nAnswer:
      \nIn a rhombus if the two diagonals are equal then it becomes a square.
