Answer
Steps of construction :
With O as center draw a circle of radius 4.5 cm.
Take a point A on the circumference with A as center cut an arc of radius 6.5 cm, intersecting circumference at point B.
Construct ∠CAB = 75°, where C lies on the circumference of the circle.
Draw XY, the perpendicular bisector of AB.
Draw AZ, the angular bisector of angle A.
Mark point P as the intersection of AZ and XY.
Measure CP.
Hence, the length of CP = 5.2 cm.
