Answer
Steps for construction:
$1.$Draw a line segment $PQ,$ which is equal $6.2\ cm.$
$2.$With $P$ as the centre and radius more than half of $PQ,$ draw arcs, one on each side of $PQ.$
$3.$With $Q$ as the centre and the same radius as before, draw arcs cutting the perviously drawn arcs at $A$ and $B,$ respectively.
$4.$Draw $AB,$ meeting $PQ$ at $R.$
