(ii) Place the protractor on point A and mark a 90° angle from AB.
(iii) Draw a line from A along this angle and measure AD 4 cm.
(iv) Repeat the same process at point B to draw a line BC perpendicular to AB and also 4 cm long.
(v) Join points D and C to complete the rectangle ABCD.
(vi) Verify that AB and CD are equal as well as AD and BC and all angles are 90°.
