Solution
Steps of Construction:
Step 1: Draw KL = 4 cm.
Step 2: Draw ∠LKX = 75º.
Step 3: With K as the centre and radius of 4 cm, draw an arc cutting the ray KX at N.
Step 4: With N as centre and radius 4 cm, draw an arc.
Step 5: With L as the center and a radius of 4 cm, draw an arc cutting the previous arc at M.
Step 6: Join LM and NM.

Here, KLMN is the required rhombus.
