To divide a line segment LM in the ratio 4 : 3, a ray LX is drawn firs such that ∠MLX is an acute angle and then points L₁, L₂, L₃, … are located at equal distances on the ray LX and the points M is joined to

To divide a line segment AB in the ration 2 : 5, first a ray AX is drawn, so that ∠BAX is an acute angle and then at equal distances points are marked on the ray such that the minimum number of these points is :

To construct a triangle similar to given ΔABC with its sides 7/4 of the corresponding sides of ΔABC, draw a ray BX such that ∠CBX is an acute angle and X is on the opposite side of A with respect to BC. The minimum number of points to be located at equal distances on ray BX is :

To divide a line segment PQ in the ratio 2 : 7, first a ray PZ is drawn so that ∠QPX is an acute angle and then at equal distances points are marked on the ray PX such that the minimum number of these points is :

To construct a triangle similar to given ΔPQR with its sides 5/8 of the corresponding sides of ΔPQR, first a ray PXis drawn such that ∠QPX is an acute angle and X lies on the opposite side of R with respect to PQ. Then locate points P₁, P₂, P₃…. OnPX at equal distances and next step is to join :

To divide a line segment LM in the ratio a : b, where a and b are positive integers, draw a ray LX so that ∠MLX is an acute angle and then mark points on the ray LX at equal distances such that the minimum number of these points is :
