Steps of Construction:
1. Draw a line segment AB of 12 cm
2. Through the points A and B draw two parallel line on the opposite side of AB
3. Cut 2 equal parts on AX and 3 equal parts on BY such that AX1=X1X2 and BX1=Y1Y2=Y2Y3.
4. Join X2Y3 which intersects AB at P∴APPB=23.
Justification:
In ΔAX2P and ΔBY3P, we have
∠APX2=∠BPY3 { Because they are vertically opposite angle}
∠X2AP=∠Y3BP { Because they are alternate interior angles }
ΔAX2P ΔBY3P { Because AA similarity }
∴ APBP=AX2BY3=23 { Because of C.P.C.T }
