Answer
View full question & answer→Here, $\angle\text{A}=30^\circ$ and $\angle\text{C}=90^\circ$
By angle sum property: $\angle\text{B}=60^\circ$
Steps for construction:
Step I: Draw the hypotenuse AB of length 5.6cm.
Step II: Draw $\angle\text{BAX}=30^\circ$ and $\angle\text{ABY}=60^\circ$
Step III: The ray AX and BY intersect at C.
Then, ABC is the required triangle.
