A line segment `A B` is of length 5 cm. Draw a circle of radius 4 cm passing through `A\ a n d\ B ?` Give reason in support of your answer.

Explanation

Steps of Construction :

* Draw a line segment AB=5cm.

** Draw a perpendicular bisector of AB.

***With center A and radius 4cm,draw an arc which intersects the perpendicular bisector at O.

****With center O and radius
OA draw a circle.

No, we cannot draw a circle of radius 2cm passing through
A and B because when we draw an arc of radius
