Philoid · Accepted Answer

The given quadrilateral ABCD can be drawn as follows:

Step 1: Draw a line segment AB = 3.6 cm.

Step 2: With 4.6 cm from A draw an arc.

Step 3: From B take radius of 3.3 cm and cut the arc drawn in step 2 and the point of intersection be C.

Step 4: Draw another arc from A at radius of 2.7 cm.

Step 5: Now, take 4 cm from B and cut the arc drawn in step 4 and the point of intersection of arcs is D.

Step 6: Join CD

ABCD is the required quadrilateral.
