constructions Perpendicular from a Point outside a Line A powerpoint presentation by Carmelo Ellul Head of Department (Mathematics)
constructions AB is the perpendicular to XY. Centre G and same radius draw another arc. Centre F and sufficient radius draw an arc. Label the point of intersection B. Join AB. AB XY. Centre A and any sufficient radius draw an arc of a circle to cut XY at F and G. From point A construct a line perpendicular to XY. Task: Construction: Perpendicular from a Point outside a Line A XY FG B Conclusion:
