Answer 1

It is given that, ABC BC =6.5cm CA=6.3cm AB=4.8cm Steps involved in construction Step 1: First draw a line segment AB = 4.8cm using pencil and ruler And mark one end A and other end B Step 2: From the point A draw an cm Step 3: From the point B draw an arc of length 6.5 cm Step point of intersection of these arc as C. Step 5: Join A and C & B and C. Now the triangle ABC is ready with BC =6.5cm CA=6.3cm AB=4.8cm
