Construct a toy house tent as given in the adjoining figure.

Steps:

1. Draw a line segment AB = 5 cm using a ruler.

2. At A, construct a perpendicular AX to AB. From AX, cut off AD = 4 cm.

3. At B, construct a perpendicular BY to AB. From BY, cut off BC = 4 cm.

4. Join DC. Then ABCD is a rectangle of length 5 cm and breadth 4 cm.

5. With D as centre and radius = 4 cm, draw an arc.

6. With C as centre and radius = 4 cm, draw another arc to cut the previous arc at point E.

7. Join DE and CE.

Hence, ABCED is the required toy house tent.
