Answer

Steps:

  1. Draw BC = 4.8 cm.

  2. Taking C as centre, draw an arc of radius 7 cm (= AC) and taking B as centre, draw one more arc of radius 4.8 cm (= AB). Let the two arcs intersect at point A.

  3. Taking C as centre, draw an arc of radius 4.8 cm (= DC) and taking A as centre, draw one more arc of radius 4.8 cm (= AD). Let the two arcs intersect at point D.

  4. Join AB, AC and DA.
