Solution
The rough figure is as follow :

∵ opposite sides of ||gm are equal
∴ AD = BC = 4.5 cm.
∴ Actual construction is as follow:

Steps :
- Draw CD = 5.2 cm.
- Draw ZCDP = 75°
- Cut DA = 4.5 cm.
- A drawn arc of radius 5.2 cm.
- From C, draw an arc of radius 4.5 cm which meets the first arc at B.
- Join AB and CB.
Thus ABCD is the required ||gm.
