We have to draw figure using following steps of construction:

Step 1: Draw a line segment ZY of 5 cm.

Step 2: Taking Z as a center and radius 6 cm mark an arc.

Step 3: Now, taking Y as a center and radius 4.5 cm mark another arc intersecting the previous arc at X.

Step 4: Join Z to X and Y to X

Hence ΔXYZ is the required triangle.
