उत्तर
Steps of construction:
- Draw line BC = 6 cm and an angle CBX = 60°. Cut off AB = 3.5. Join AC, triangle ABC is the required triangle.
- Draw perpendicular bisector of BC and bisector of angle B.
- Bisector of angle B meets bisector of BC at P.
`=>` BP is the required length, where, PB = 3.5 cm - P is the point which is equidistant from BA and BC, also equidistant from B and C.
PB = 3.6 cm
