Steps of construction :
Step 1 : As shown in the rough figure, draw seg PN of length 4.5 cm as the base.
Step 2 : Placing the centre of the protractor at point P, mark point Q such that m∠QPN = 75°.
Step 3 : By taking a distance of 6.2 cm on the compass and placing the metal tip at point P, draw an arc on ray PQ. Name the point as M.
Step 4 : Draw seg MN to get the triangle. ∆MNP is the required triangle.Image
