Question

[6A.5] Given a triangle ABC, where ∠C is obtuse, construct triangle PCB having the same area and with ∠P = 90◦. (Hint: Construct a circle with diameter AB.)

Two-dimensional figure measured in terms of radius. It is formed by a set of points that are at a constant or fixed distance from a fixed point in the center of the plane. The parts of the circle are circumference, radius, diameter, chord, tangent, secant, arc of a circle, and segment in a circle.
