How to draw a square with diagonals

Creation of various geometrical figures – occupation not only fascinating, but also useful. Ellipses, circles, rectangles, polygons and squares can be required by you for the embodiment in life of some design decisions, design tasks. Before drawing a square with diagonals, check whether all necessary for this purpose at you is available.

It is required to you

  • - school compasses,
  • - ruler,
  • - pencil,
  • - sheet of paper.

Instruction

1. Prepare necessary tools, perfect the pencil and a slate pencil inserted into school compasses. Make sure that the square of the size necessary for you, will be located on the prepared sheet of paper.

2. Take a ruler and with its help draw a straight line of AV which length is equal to the party of that square which you need to draw. Draw the line, having receded on 1 cm from the sheet edge of paper, approximately parallel to it.

3. Now take compasses. Place its needle in a point And, and the slate pencil edge – in a point In, thus, distance between his legs will be equal to length of the party of a square. Otchertite to them an arch length several centimeters, having restored mentally a perpendicular from a point A. Zatem transfer an edge to a point In and you otchertit the same arch over it, do not shift a leg of compasses, the distance between them has to be still equal to length of the party of a square - AV.

4. Make small arithmetic calculation to determine the unknown diameter of a square, knowing length of its party. Use Pythagorean theorem. For this purpose square length of the party of AV, increase by two and take a square root from the received value. Or increase value of length of the party of a square of AV by a root square of 2. It is equal to 1.414.

5. Postpone compasses the received value of diagonal of a square on a ruler. Establish a needle edge in a point And yes you otchertit a small arch over a point In, it has to be crossed with that arch which you drew earlier. It is a point of D. Then transfer a compasses needle edge to a point In and you otchertit an arch over a point And. The Page point will be crossing of two arches.

6. To draw a square with diagonals, just connect consistently points And, With, D and V.U you turned out a geometrical figure – an ideal square with the right angles and four parties equal each other.
