Construction Algorithm |
1 |
|
Construct
a line AB as a given base of the rhombus. |
2 |
|
Construct
a line BC so that AB = BC considering that C is the third vertex of the
rhombus. |
3 |
|
Construct
a line parallel to AB that passes through point C. |
4 |
|
Construct
another line parallel to BC that passes through point A. |
5 |
|
Generate
the intersection points between the last two constructed lines to find
the
fourth vertex of the rhombus. |
6 |
|
Join
up the four points to get the required rhombus. |
7 |
|
Switch
to
drag mode. Pick
a free element. Move it around to check your construction. |
Construction Theorem |
A rhombus is a parallelogram,
in which two adjacent sides are equal in length. |
