Using ruler and compasses only, construct a parallelogram ABCD such that BC = 4 cm, diagonal AC = 8.6 cm and diagonal BD = 4.4 cm. Measure the side AB.

Steps of construction: 1. Draw a line segment BC = 4 cm. 2. Construct triangle OBC such that OB = x BD = 2.2 cm OC = x AC = 4.3 cm 3. With B as center and radius 2.2 cm and with centre C and radius 4.3 cm, draw arcs intersecting each other at O. Since, diagonals of || gm bisect each other. 4. Produce BO to D such that BO = OD = 2.2 cm. 5. Produce CO to A such that CO = OA = 4.3 cm. 6. Join AB, AD and CD. Then ABCD is the required parallelogram. On measuring AB = 5.6 cm. Hence, AB = 5.6 cm.

Using ruler and compasses only, construct a parallelogram ABCD in which AB = 4.6 cm, BC = 3.2 cm and AC = 6.1 cm.
