38. Case Study – 3

In a village, four boys were playing in a ground. They planned to device a game using
geometrical concepts. Ramesh took the lead and planned in the following manner:
Four poles were marked in the ground as A, B, C, D. With the help of a rope, the poles
were joined to form a quadrilateral. Now, Ramesh selected four boys such as P, Q, R
and S and placed in the mid-points of the rope paths...
After making this arrangement, they started playing throw ball in the order from P to Q;
Q to R; R to S and finally from S to P.

On the basis of this arrangement, Ramesh asks the following questions to the other
boys:
(i) Which geometrical shape is generated by PQRS? 1
(ii) What shape is expected by the join of PQRS if ABCD forms a rhombus? 1
(iii) If PQ = 10 m, what is the distance between the two poles A & C? 2
OR
If AC = 30 m, find RS?
