Construction of Triangles (Special Cases): Overview

This topic helps us understand the different cases of the construction of triangles. Four cases are explained for the construction of different types of triangles. It also provides us with the step-by-step explanation for the construction of triangles.

Steps of construction of triangle ABC in which BC=8 cm, B=45° and AB-AC=1 cm are given below.

Step 1: Draw BC=8 cm.

Step 2: Construct CBX=45°

Step 3: Cut off BP=9 cm on BX. Join CP.
