Answer
Steps:
Mark a point O on the sheet of paper, as the common centre of the two circles.
Open the compass to the required radius of 2.6 cm.
Place the pointer of the compass at O and revolve the pencil end of the compass slowly to draw the first circle.
Now, open the compass to the required radius of 4.1 cm.
Place the pointer of the compass at the same point O and revolve the pencil end of the compass slowly to draw the second circle.
Hence, two concentric circles of radii 2.6 cm and 4.1 cm with O as their common centre are constructed.
