How to construct a trapezium ABCD in AB||DC,AB=6cm,DC=3.5cm,angle A=55° and AD=3.2cm

Answer : 

we follow these steps to construct required t​rapezium ABCD , from given information , As : 


Step 1 : Draw a line AB  =  6 cm 

Step 2 : Draw 55° at point A , with the help of protractor.  we get  BAX  =  55​° .

Step 3 : Take radius of 3.2 cm and center " A " draw an arc that intersect line AX at " D " . 

We know in trapezium adjacent angles are supplementary  ,  So ​ A + ​ D  =  180​°
So,

55​° + ​​ D  =  180​°

 D  =  125​°

Step 4 : Draw 125​​​° at point " D " with the help of protractor.   we get ​ ADY  =  125°

Step 5 : Take radius of 3.5 cm and center " D " draw an arc that intersect line DY at  " C " . 

Step 6 : Join CB , we get required trapezium ABCD .
