Question 1 Draw any line segment (ππ) Μ . Without measuring (ππ) Μ , construct a copy of (ππ) Μ Suppose we are given line segment (ππ) Μ We need to draw its copy Letβs follow these steps 1. Draw a line l mark point A on it 2. Measure line segment (ππ) Μ using compass 3. Now keeping compass opened the same length. We keep pointed end at point A, and draw an arc on line l So, the required line segment is AB
