Steps of construction:
- Draw a line segment BC = 6.2 cm.
- At B, construct ∠CBX = 60°.
- With centre B and radius 5 cm, draw an arc intersecting BX at A.
- From A, draw a line AY parallel to BC.
- With centre C and radius 4.8 cm, draw an arc which intersects AY at D.
- Join CD. Then ABCD is the required trapezium.
