Draw any line segment ¯AB.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AB.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AB. Mark any point MMM on it. Through M,M,M, draw a perpendicular to ¯AB.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AB.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AB.


Answer:

A B M P Q K

Step by Step Explanation:
  1. Draw a line segment ABABAB and mark a point MMM on it.
    A B M
  2. With MMM as centre and a convenient radius, construct an arc intersecting the line segment ABABAB at PPP and Q.Q.Q.
    A B M P Q
  3. With PPP and QQQ as centres and radius greater than PM,PM,PM, construct 222 arcs and mark the point of their intersection as K.K.K. Join MK.MK.MK.
    A B M P Q K
  4. ¯MK¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯MK¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯MK is the required perpendicular through MMM on ¯AB.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AB.¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯AB.
