Practical Geometry

Chapter Overview

The chapter 'Practical Geometry' focuses on the construction of quadrilaterals when different sets of parameters are given. Students learn to use geometrical tools like compasses, rulers, and protractors to construct shapes based on given measurements. This chapter develops precision, logic, and spatial understanding.

Important Keywords

  • Construction: Drawing shapes using geometrical tools.
  • Quadrilateral: A polygon with four sides.
  • Adjacent Sides: Two sides that share a common vertex.
  • Diagonal: A line joining two non-adjacent vertices.
  • Compass: A tool used to draw arcs and circles with a fixed radius.
