Solution
Steps of Construction:
Step 1: Draw BA = 4.2 cm.
Step 2: With B as the centre and a radius of 4.2 cm, draw an arc.
Step 3: With A as the centre and a radius of 6 cm, draw an arc cutting the previous arc at C.
Step 4: Join BC.
Step 5: With A as the centre and a radius of 5.6 cm, draw an arc.
Step 6: With C as the centre and a radius of 5.6 cm, draw an arc cutting the previous arc at R.
Step 7: Join AR and CR.

Here, BARC is the required quadrilateral.
