Here, we will use the following steps of construction:
Step I Draw any angle XOY with vertex O.

Step II Take a point A on OX and a point B on OY, such that OA = OB.
Step III Now, with O as centre, using compasses, draw an arc radius more than half of the length of \(\bar{OA}\).
Step IV With the same radius and with A as centre, draw another arcs using compasses, which cut the previous arc at C and D respectively.
Step V join \(\bar{CD}\) . It curs \(\bar{OA}\) at M therefore, CD is the perpendicular bisector of OA.
Step VI Now, with 0 as centre and radius equal to more than half of the length of OB, draw arcs.
Step VII With same radius and with B as centre, draw another arcswhich cut the previousarcsat E and F.
Step VIII join \(\bar{EF}\). It curs \(\bar{OB}\) at N. Therefore, EF is the perpendicular of \(\bar{OA}\).
Also, both perpendicular bisectors meet at A.
On measuring, we get PA = PB.

(a) Avneet lays 9 squares in the form of a square as shown in the figure, then side of the square
\(=\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) m=\frac { 1+1+1 }{ 2 } =\frac { 3 }{ 2 } m\)
\(=\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +1+1+\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +1+1+\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +1+1+\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +1+1 \right) m\)
∴ Perimeter of Avneet's arrangement
= 4 \(\times\) Length of a side = 4 \(\times\) \(\frac{3}{2}\) = 6 m
Hence, the perimeter of Avneet's arrangement is 6 m.
(b) Shari lays 9 squares in the form of a cross as shown in figure, then
Perimeter of Shari's arrangement = Sum of all sides
= AB + BC + CD + DE + EF + FG + GH + HI + IJ + JK + KL+ LA
\(=\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) +\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) +\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) +\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) +\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) \)
\(=\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +1+1+\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +1+1+\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +1+1+\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +1+1 \right) m\)
\(=\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +8 \right) m=(1+1+8)m=10m\)
Hence, the perimeter of Shari's arrangement is 10m
(c) From above, it is clear that Shari's arrangement i.e, a cross has greater perimeter.
(d) Yes, there is a way shown alongside in which we get a greater perimeter.
Here, we have arrange the 9 squares in the form of a rectangle
Now, length of rectangle
\(=\left( \frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) m=\frac { 9 }{ 2 } m\)
and breadth of rectangle = 1/ 2 m
∴ Perimeter of this rectangle = 2 \(\times\)(Length + Breadth
\(=2\times \left( \frac { 9 }{ 2 } +\frac { 1 }{ 2 } \right) =2\times \left( \frac { 9+1 }{ 2 } \right) \)
\(=2\times \frac { 10 }{ 2 } =10m\)
It is clear that, it has the perimeter equal to cross. So, we can say that cross has greater perimeter comparison to square.

Draw a line and mark some points at equal distance on it as shown in the figure given below. Mark a point on it as zero. Points to the right of zero are positive integers and marked by +1, + 2, +3 erc., or simply 1, 2, 3 etc and points to the left of zero are negative integers and marked by -1, - 2, - 3 etc. Now, - 3 is a negative integer (since, - 3 has negative sign). So, move 3 points to the left of zero and represent it by point C. 7 is a positive integer (since + 7 has positive sign). So, move 7 points to the right of zero and represent it by point F. To mark - 4 on this line, move 4 points to the left of zero and represent it by point B. To mark - 8, on this line, move 8 points to the left of zero and represent it by point A. To mark - 1 on this line, move 1 point to the left of zero and represent it by point D. To mark 3 on this line, move 3 points to the right of zero and represent it by point E. Thus, we get the following representation of these integers on the number line:
