Construct a triangle similar to a given triangle as per given scale factor:
Scale Factor:
The ratio m : n of the side of the triangle to be constructed with the corresponding sides of the given triangle is knwon as their scale factor.
In this construction, there are two diferent situations:
(I) Steps of construction when m<n :
(i) Construct the given triangle ABC by using the given data.
(ii) Take any one of the three side of the given triangle as base. Let AB be the base of the given triangle.
(iii) At one end, say A, of the base AB draw a ray AX making a suitable acute angle with AB below the base AB.
(iv) Along AX mark n points such that
(v) Join
(vi) Draw parallel to which meets AB at B.
(vii) From B1 draw B1C1 BC meeting AC at C1.
Triangle AB1C1 is the required triangle each of whose sides is of the corresponding side of
Example: Construct a in which AB = 5cm, BC = 6 cm and AC = 7 cm. Now, construct a triangle similar to such that each of its sides is two-third of the corresponding sides of .
SOLUTION:
Steps of Construction:
(i) Draw a line segment AB = 5cm.
(ii) With A as centre and radius = 7cm, draw an arc above AB.
(iii) With B as centre and radius = 6 cm, draw another arc, intersecting the arc drawn in step ii) at C.
(iv) Join AC and BC to obtain .
(v) Below AB, draw a ray AX making a suitable acute angle with AB on opposite side of C with respect to AB.
(vi) Draw three arcs (greater of 2 and 3 in 2/3) intersecting the ray AX at such that
(vii) Join
(viii) Draw meeting AB at B1.
(ix) From B1, draw , meeting AC at C1.
AB1C1 is the required triangle, each of the whose sides is two-third of the corresponding sides of
(II) Steps of construction when m>n :
(i) Construct the given triangle by using the given data.
(ii) Take any one of the three sides of the given triangle and consider it as th base. Let AB be the base of the given triangle.
(iii) At one end, say A, of base AB draw a ray AX making a suitable acute angle with base AB on the opposite side of the vertex C with respect to AB.
(iv) Draw arcs (large of m and n) intersecting the ray AX at such that
(v) Join to B.
(vi) Draw a line through parallel to , intersecting the extended line segement AB at B1.
(vii) Draw a line through B1 parallel to BC intersecting the extended line segment AC at C1
(viii) so obtained is the required triangle.
Example: Draw a triangle ABC with side BC = 7 cm. .Construct a triangle whose sides are (4/3) times the corresponding side of
SOLUTION:
Steps of Construction:
(i) Draw BC = 7 cm.
(ii) Draw a ray BX and CY such that and
Suppose BX and CY intersect each other at A.
so obtained is the given triangle.
(iii) Draw a ray BZ making a suitable acute angle with BC on oppsosite side of vertex A with respect to BC.
(iv) Draw four (greater of 4 and 3 in 4/3) arcs intersecting the ray BZ at such that
(v) Join to C and draw a line through parallel to intersecting the extended line segement BC at C1.
(vi) Draw a line through C1 parallel to CA intersecting the extended line segement BA at A1.
Triangle A1BC1 so obtained is the required triangle.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
When I have not joined Abhyas Academy, my skills of solving maths problems were not clear. But, after joining it, my skills have been developed and my concepts of science and SST are very well. I also came to know about other subjects such as vedic maths and reasoning.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very nice or it can be said wonderful. I have been studying here from seven class. I have been completing my journey of three years. I am tinking that I should join Abhyas Academy in tenth class as I am seeing much improvement in Maths and English
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
We started with lot of hope that Abhyas will help in better understnding of complex topics of highers classes. we are not disappointed with the progress our child has made after attending Abhyas. Though need to mention that we expected a lot more. On a scale of 1-10, we would give may be 7.
My experience was very good with Abhyas academy. I am studying here from 6th class and I am satisfied by its results in my life. I improved a lot here ahead of school syllabus.
Usually we see institutes offering objective based learning which usually causes a lag behind in subjective examinations which is the pattern followed by schools. I think it is really a work of planning to make us students grab the advantages of modes of examination, Objective Subjective and Onli...
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
My experience with Abhyas Academy has been very good. When I was not in Abhyas whenever teacher ask questions I could not speak it confidently but when I came in Abhyas, my speaking skills developed and now I am the first one to give the answer of teachers question.
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
It has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice

Third consective year,my ward is in Abhyas with nice experience of admin and transport support.Educational standard of the institute recumbent at satisfactory level. One thing would live to bring in notice that last year study books was distributed after half of the session was over,though study ...
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
