Construction of Parallel line through a given point
Construction of Parallel line through a given point: Two lines are said to be parallel lines when they originate from two different points and lies on the same plane and never meet each other. The distance between these two lines are the same over their entire length.
There will not be any common point on the plane. Now, we will see constructing parallel lines.
We have to do preparation for constructing any two lines which are parallel to each other. The parallel lines will lie on the same plane and are called as the co-planar. The lines are parallel to itself and they are supposed to satisfy the condition that the slope of the lines must be equal.
First Method to Construct Parallel Line: There are some important steps to be followed to constructing parallel lines. The steps are explained as follows.Step 1: Draw a line of finite length.
Step 2: Here, we have to draw perpendicular in a point A. Take a compass of certain radius and cut both side of A taking A as center.
Step 3: Now take a compass of radius more than length of BA or CA. First, take B as center, take compass of radius more than the length of BA, cut above and below of line BAC. Repeat the similar process taking C as center.
Step 4: Now join p and m. This will be perpendicular to line BAC.
Step 5: Now repeat the same process to draw perpendicular line at point p which should be perpendicular to line PA. So, the new line is parallel to line BAC.Second Method to Construct Parallel Lines: There are some important steps to be followed to construct parallel lines. The steps are explained as follows.Step 1: Draw a line PQ and take one point R above this line.
Step 2:Now, join the point R with the line PQ so that it will make some angle. Here, it intersects the line PQ at the point J.
Step 3:Now, take the length of compass as half the length of RJ and draw an arc taking J as center.
Step 4:Now with the same arc width, draw an arc taking R as center.
Step 5:Now set the compass width so that it is equal to lower arc.
Step 6:Now take the compass above and cut the point at above arc, taking intersection of upper arc and line RJ as center.
Step 7: Draw a straight line that will pass through the points R and S. So, the line RS is parallel to line PQ.

10thA 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.

8thIt 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.

10thMy 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.

8thAbout 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.
Shreya Shrivastava
8thIt 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.
Eshan Arora
8thMy 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.
