Question34. On the grid below, draw a three-sided figure with two equal sides and one right angle
Studdy Solution
STEP 1
1. We are working on a grid, which implies a coordinate plane.
2. The figure to be drawn is a triangle.
3. The triangle has two equal sides, indicating it is an isosceles triangle.
4. The triangle has one right angle, indicating it is a right triangle.
STEP 2
1. Identify the properties of the triangle to be drawn.
2. Choose a starting point on the grid.
3. Draw the right angle.
4. Ensure two sides are equal.
5. Complete the triangle.
STEP 3
Identify the properties of the triangle: - It is an isosceles right triangle, which means it has a right angle and two equal sides. - The right angle will be between the two equal sides.
STEP 4
Choose a starting point on the grid: - Select a convenient point, such as the origin (0,0), to make drawing easier.
STEP 5
Draw the right angle: - From the starting point (0,0), draw a horizontal line to the right, such as to the point (a,0). - Draw a vertical line upwards from the starting point, such as to the point (0,a).
STEP 6
Ensure two sides are equal: - The horizontal and vertical lines drawn should be of equal length, indicating the two equal sides of the isosceles triangle.
STEP 7
Complete the triangle:
- Connect the endpoints of the horizontal and vertical lines, (a,0) and (0,a), to form the hypotenuse of the triangle.
The triangle is now drawn on the grid with two equal sides and one right angle.
