Solution
Steps of construction:
Step I: Draw AC = 6 cm .
Step II: With A as the centre and radius 6 cm, draw an arc .
Step III : With C as the centre and radius 5 cm, draw an arc to intersect the arc drawn in Step II at D .
Step IV: With D as the centre and radius 10 cm, draw an arc on the other side of the line segment AC .
Step V : With C as the centre and radius 7 . 5 cm, draw an arc to intersect the arc drawn in Step IV at B .
Step VI: Join BA, DA, BC and CD to obtained the required quadrilateral
