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.
