Constructions: Chapter-11

The document discusses constructions of various geometric shapes including: 1) Dividing a line segment into ratios and constructing similar triangles based on a scale factor. 2) Constructing triangles similar to a given triangle with sides that are a certain multiple of the original triangle. 3) Drawing tangents to circles from points both inside and outside the circle and measuring lengths. 4) Constructing perpendiculars and circles through specific points.
