6. Draw a circle of radius 2.7 cm and draw chord PQ of length 4.5 cm. Draw tangents at P and Q without using centre.
To draw tangents without using the centre, we use the property that the angle between a tangent and a chord is equal to the angle in the alternate segment.
If we construct a triangle \( \Delta PQR \) inside the circle, the angle required for the tangent at point P will be equal to \( \angle R \), and similarly for point Q.
Steps of Construction:
- Draw a circle with a radius of 2.7 cm.
- Take a point P anywhere on the circle.
- Using a compass, take a distance of 4.5 cm, place the metal point on P, and cut an arc on the circle to mark point Q. Join chord PQ.
- Take any point R on the major arc (the larger side of the circle) and join PR and QR to form \( \Delta PQR \).
- Place the compass at point R and draw an arc intersecting sides PR and QR. Keep the same radius.
- Place the compass point at P and draw a similar arc intersecting chord PQ. Do the same at point Q intersecting chord QP.
- Measure the distance of the arc drawn at angle R. Cut this distance on the arcs drawn at P and Q to replicate \( \angle PRQ \).
- Draw a line passing through P and the intersection point of the arcs. This is the required tangent at P.
- Draw a line passing through Q and the intersection point of the arcs. This is the required tangent at Q.

8. Construct any right angled triangle and draw incircle of that triangle. ∆ ABC is the required right angled triangle. Such that AB = 6 cm, BC = 9 cm and m ∠ABC = 90┬║,
To solve this problem, we will first construct a right-angled triangle based on specific measurements, and then construct its incircle (a circle touching all three sides of the triangle internally).
Step 1: Triangle Construction Details
Let \(\Delta ABC\) be the required right-angled triangle with the following dimensions:
- Length of side \(AB = 6 \text{ cm}\)
- Length of side \(BC = 9 \text{ cm}\)
- Angle \(m\angle ABC = 90^\circ\)

Step 2: Steps of Construction
- Draw a line segment \(BC\) of length \(9 \text{ cm}\).
- At point \(B\), construct an angle of \(90^\circ\).
- Cut off a segment \(AB\) of \(6 \text{ cm}\) from the ray of the \(90^\circ\) angle.
- Join points \(A\) and \(C\) to form \(\Delta ABC\).
- To find the incenter, draw the angle bisectors of \(\angle B\) and \(\angle C\).
- Mark the point of intersection of these bisectors as \(I\) (the Incenter).
- From \(I\), draw a perpendicular to side \(BC\) intersecting at point \(D\).
- With \(I\) as the center and \(ID\) as the radius, draw a circle. This is the required incircle.

Geometry Challenge: Constructing an Incircle
7. Construct the incircle of ∆DEF in which DE = DF = 5.8 cm, and ∠EDF = 65┬║.
Glossary of Terms
- Incircle
- The largest possible circle that can be drawn inside a triangle, touching all three sides without crossing them.
- Triangle (∆)
- A fundamental shape in geometry consisting of three straight sides and three angles.
- Isosceles Triangle
- A triangle that has two sides of equal length. In this problem, ∆DEF is isosceles because DE = DF.
- Angle Bisector
- A line or ray that divides an angle into two smaller, equal angles. The construction of an incircle relies on finding where these bisectors meet.
- Incenter
- The center point of a triangle's incircle. It is found at the intersection of the triangle's three angle bisectors.
IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER FOR CONSTRUCTING CIRCUMCIRCLE OF TRIANGLE.
1. A circle passing through the vertices of the triangle is called the circumcircle of a triangle.
2. Circumcentre can be obtained by drawing perpendicular bisectors of any two sides of a triangle.
3. The point of intersection of the perpendicular bisectors is called
circumcentre and it is equidistant from the vertices of the triangle.
The position of circumcentre depends upon the type of a triangle.
(i) If the triangle is an obtuse angled triangle, the circumcentre lies outside the triangle.
(ii) If the triangle is an acute angled triangle, the circumcentre lies inside the triangle.
(iii) If the triangle is a right angled triangle, the circumcentre lies on the midpoint of the hypotenuse.
