Q02. Triangles with 3 given sides
Construction
1. Draw line BC = side a
2. Draw a circle with center at B and radius = c
3. Draw a circle with center at C and radius = b
4. Two circle meet at point A
5. Join AB and AC
6. Triangle ABC is the answer

Q03. Draw triangle with given 3 heights
Let 3 heights be h1, h2, h3 and area = m
Area = base*height/2
Hence p = m/h1, q = m/h2, r = m/h3
Since p, q, r are 3 given sides (h1, h2, h3, m are given)
Hence we can construct triangle PQR
Then we draw a similar triangle ABC with sides h1, h2, h3
