Steps of construction:

Draw a line segment BC = 5.2 cm.
From BC, cut off BE = 4 cm.
With centre E and radius 3 cm, draw an arc.
With centre C and radius 3 cm, draw an arc to meet the previous arc at D.
Join ED and CD.
With centre D and radius 4 cm, draw an arc.
With centre B and radius 3 cm, draw an arc to meet the previous arc at A.
Join BA and DA. Then ABCD is the required quadrilateral.
