Construct a ΔABC in which BC = 5 cm, AB = 4 cm and m∠B =50°.
Answers
1. draw base AB=4cm
2. with A as center, with a scale of 5cm as radius draw an arc and with B as center, with a scale of 6cm as radius draw an arc.
3. let C be the point of intersection of the above 2 lines.
4. draw a ray AX making an acute angle with line AB on the opposite side if the vertex C.
5. mark 3 points A1,A2,A3 such tha A1A2=A2A3=A3A1
6. join A3B and draw a parallel line B

A2
7. draw a line parallel to BC to intersect AC at C

Justification;
By construction,

AB ′= AA3AA2
= 32
