Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information.   

02

Step 2. Concept used.

Draw by using compass.

03

Step 3. Construction.

Steps to draw perpendicular from point S to line l are described below:

Draw two arcs of equal radii with point S as center intersecting line l at X  and  Y.

Using X  and  Y as centers and a suitable radius, draw arcs that intersect at point Z as shown in figure below.

Join SZ which is perpendicular.
