Solution

The rough figure is as follows.

∵ Diagonals of || gm bisect each other.

∴ OB = OD = `1/2`BD = 2.8 cm.

The actual figure is constructed with the help of the above figure as follows.

Steps :

  1. Draw AC = 6.4 cm.
  2. Bisect AC at O.
  3. Draw ∠XOC = 75° and produce XO to Y.
  4. Cut OB = OD = 2 8 cm.
  5. Join AB, BC, AD, and CD.
    Thus ABCD is the required ||gm.
