Geometrical Constructions PAPER 2 (2004, Q18) Set square and protractors are not allowed for this question. Diagram 2 in the answer space shows a straight line AB. (a) Using only a ruler and a pair of compasses, (i) construct a triangle ABC beginning from a straight line AB such that BC = 6 cm and AC = 5 cm, (ii) hence, construct the perpendicular line to the straight line AB passes through the point C. (b) Based on the diagram constructed in (a), measure the perpendicular distance between point C and the straight line AB. [6 marks]
