Join the D and P. ii. With any point O draw an arc (more than a semicircle) with a radius of OP, cuts AB at C. iii. Join the C and O and extend till it cuts the large arc at D. iv. DP gives the perpendicular to AB.

Given are the steps to draw a perpendicular to a line at a point within the line when the point is near an end of the line. Arrange the steps. Let AB be the line and P be the point in it. i. Join the D and P. ii. With any point O draw an arc (more than a semicircle) with a radius of OP, cuts AB at C. iii. Join the C and O and extend till it cuts the large arc at D. iv. DP gives the perpendicular to AB. Correct Answer ii, iii, i, iv

There exists a common procedure for obtaining perpendiculars for lines. But changes are due changes in conditions whether the point lies on the line, off the line, near the centre or near the ends etc.
