Draw a line segment ¯PQ.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯PQ. Take a point RR outside the line segment ¯PQ.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯PQ. Through R,R, draw a line perpendicular to ¯PQ.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯PQ.
Answer:
- Draw a line segment ¯PQ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯PQ and mark a point RR such that it does not lie on the line segment ¯PQ.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯PQ.
- With RR as centre and an appropriate radius, draw an arc that intersects the line segment ¯PQ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯PQ on two 22 points AA and B.B.
- With the same radius as in step 2,2, draw 22 arcs with centres AA and BB respectively and mark the intersection of the arcs as point S.S.
- Join RS,RS, the line segment ¯RS¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯RS is the required perpendicular line to ¯PQ.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯PQ.
