The correct Answer is:
To construct the parallelogram HEAR with the given dimensions and angle, follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Construction: 1. **Draw Line Segment HE**: - Use a ruler to draw a line segment HE that measures 5 cm. 2. **Construct Angle R**: - At point E, use a protractor to measure an angle of 85 degrees. Mark this angle on the paper. 3. **Draw Line EA**: - From point E, draw a line segment EA that measures 6 cm along the direction of the 85-degree angle you just marked. 4. **Locate Point A**: - Mark the endpoint of the line segment EA as point A. 5. **Draw Line Segment HR**: - Since HEAR is a parallelogram, HR must be parallel to EA. To find point R, use a ruler to draw a line parallel to EA starting from point H. 6. **Measure Line HR**: - Since HE = HR = 5 cm, measure 5 cm along the line you just drew from point H to locate point R. 7. **Complete the Parallelogram**: - Finally, connect points A and R with a straight line to complete the parallelogram HEAR. ### Final Check: - Ensure that opposite sides HE and AR are equal (both 5 cm) and EA and HR are equal (both 6 cm). Also, check that angles E and R are equal, confirming that HEAR is indeed a parallelogram.
