Construct △ABC, the given right angled triangle, as follows:Step 1: Draw base BC of length 4 cm.Step 2: Draw a right angle at point B.Step 3: Draw an arc of radius 3 cm on the right angle drawn from B and label that point as AStep 4: Join A−C.△ABC is the given triangle.To construct △EBD∼△ABC:Step 1: Draw a ray BX at an acute angle to line BC on the opposite side of A.Step 2: Mark 5 equidistant points B1​,B2​,B3​,B4​,B5​ on ray BX.Step 3: Join B3​ and C.Step 4: Draw B5​D parallel to B3​C and label the intersection on the extension of BC as D.Step 5: Draw DE parallel to BA and label the intersection with the extension of BA as E△EBD is the required triangle.
