Draw a circle with centre C and radius 3.4 cm. Draw any chord AB. Construct the perpendicular bisector of AB and examine if it passes through C

Solution:

We can draw the perpendicular bisector of a chord AB in a circle of radius 3.4 cm by following the steps given below.

Step 1: Measure and draw a circle of radius 3.4 cm and center C.

Step 2: Draw a chord that meets at the two points A and B on the circle.

Step 3: Taking A and B as center draw arcs that intersect at points X and Y.

Step 4: Draw a line that passes through points X and Y.

If the line XY is extended, it will meet center C.
