×7.6=9.5 cm

Construction:

Step 1: Draw base XZ=9.5 cm with a ruler.

Step 2: Place the compass on point X and measure an arc with length of the compass as XY=7.5 cm.

Step 3: Place the compass on point Z and measure an arc with length of the compass as YZ=8.5 cm.

Step 4: Mark the intersection point of the arcs in steps 2 and 3 as point Y and draw lines joining X−Y and Z−Y.

△XYZ is the required triangle.
