Answer

Steps of construction:

  1. Draw a line segment BC = 7 cm.
  2. At B, construct ∠CBX = 75°.
  3. With B as center and radius 5.1 cm, draw an arc intersecting BX at A.
  4. With A as center and radius 7 cm, draw an arc.
  5. With C as center and radius 5.1 cm, draw an arc to meet the previous arc at D.
  6. Join AD and CD. Then ABCD is the required parallelogram.
