Line segment AB = 6 cm and perpendicular distance = 2.5 cm.
- Draw line segment AB = 6 cm and mark any point P on it.
- Construct a perpendicular PQ ⊥ AB at point P using a protractor/compass.
- Cut an arc of radius 2.5 cm with center P on ray PQ to mark point R.
- At point R, construct line m ⊥ PR.
- Line m is the required line parallel to line segment AB at a distance of 2.5 cm.

(i) Is m ∥ n? Why?**
(ii) Is l ∥ n? Why?
(iii) Is t ⊥ l? Why?
- (i) Is m ∥ n? Why?
Yes, m ∥ n. Perpendiculars drawn to the same line (t) in the same plane are parallel to each other because their corresponding interior angles are both equal to 90°.
- (ii) Is l ∥ n? Why?
Yes, l ∥ n. Given that l ∥ m, and we proved m ∥ n. Lines parallel to the same line are parallel to each other.
- (iii) Is t ⊥ l? Why?
Yes, t ⊥ l. Since t ⊥ m and l ∥ m, a line perpendicular to one of two parallel lines is also perpendicular to the other parallel line.

Yes, ON = NS**.
According to the Equal Intercepts Theorem, if three parallel lines (a, b, c) produce equal intercepts on one transversal line (l, i.e., PQ = QR), then they produce equal intercepts on any other transversal line (m) as well. Hence, ON = NS.

(i) Is AB ∥ EF ∥ DC? Why?**
(ii) Is F, the midpoint for the line segment CB? Why?
- (i) Is AB ∥ EF ∥ DC? Why?
Yes, AB ∥ EF ∥ DC. Since AB ∥ DC and EF ∥ AB, lines parallel to the same line are parallel to each other (EF ∥ DC).
- (ii) Is F, the midpoint for the line segment CB? Why?
Yes, F is the midpoint of CB. Since E is the midpoint of AD, AE = ED (equal intercepts on transversal AD). By the equal intercepts theorem, parallel lines AB, EF, DC cut equal intercepts on transversal CB as well, making BF = FC. Thus, F is the midpoint of CB.

Yes, the ratio of intercepts will be equal** (AB/BC = DE/EF).
When three parallel lines are intersected by two transversals, the ratio of corresponding intercepts cut on the parallel lines by the transversals is always equal.

In △ ABC, DE ∥ BC, AD = 1.5 cm, DB = 3 cm, EC = 4 cm.
- By Basic Proportionality Theorem (Thales Theorem) / :
AD/DB = AE/EC
1.5/3 = AE/4
1/2 = AE/4
AE = 4/2 = 2 cm

- Calculated Length of each part / :
Length of each part = (8.4 cm)/(7) = 1.2 cm
- Draw line segment AB = 8.4 cm.
- Draw ray AC at point A making an acute angle.
- Mark 7 equal arcs C1, C2, …, C7 on ray AC.
- Join C7 to B.
- Draw lines parallel to BC7 from points C6, C5, C4, C3, C2, C1 intersecting AB.
- Each division on AB measures 1.2 cm.

10 सेमी के रेखाखंड को 2 3 के…
Line segment AB = 10 cm, Ratio = 2 : 3.
- Calculation of Lengths / :
- Sum of ratio parts = 2 + 3 = 5.
- First Part (AP) = 2/5 × 10 cm = 4 cm
- Second Part (PB) = 3/5 × 10 cm = 6 cm
- Draw AB = 10 cm and ray AC making an acute angle at A.
- Cut 2 + 3 = 5 equal arcs C1, C2, C3, C4, C5 on ray AC.
- Join C5 to B.
- Draw a line parallel to BC5 through C2 intersecting AB at point P.
- Point P divides AB in the ratio 2 : 3 (AP = 4 cm and PB = 6 cm).

AB = 7 cm, AP/AB = 2/5.
- AP = 2/5 × 7 cm = 14/5 cm = 2.8 cm
- PB = AB – AP = 7 – 2.8 = 4.2 cm
