Answer

Steps:

  1. Draw BD = 6.7 cm.

  2. Locate the mid-point O of BD by drawing its perpendicular bisector.

  3. Through O, construct a line EOF so that angle EOD = 60°.

  4. From EF, cut OC = AC2\dfrac{AC}{2} = 5.42\dfrac{5.4}{2} = 2.7 cm and also OA = AC2\dfrac{AC}{2} = 5.42\dfrac{5.4}{2} = 2.7 cm

  5. Join AB, BC, CD and DA.
