Solution
The rough figure is as follow :

The above rough figure is used to construct the actual ||gm as follow :

Steps :
- Draw AB = 3.6 cm.
- Draw BP such that ∠B = 120°.
- Cut BC = 4.5 cm.
- From A, draw an arc of radius 4.5 cm.
- From C, draw an arc of radius 3.6 cm. Which intersects the first arc at D.
- Join AD and CD.
Hence ABCD is the required ||gm.
