Construct a $\vartriangle ABC$ such that $AB=6$, $AC=5\ cm$ and the base $B C$ is $4\ cm$.
Given: $\vartriangle ABC$ such that $AB=6$, $AC=5\ cm$ and the base $BC$ is $4\ cm$.
To do: To construct $\vartriangle ABC$.
Solution:
Follow the steps of construction:
1. Draw $BC=4\ cm$.
2. Take point $B$ as centre and radius$( 6\ cm)$, draw an arc.
3. Take point $C$ as centre and radius$( 5\ cm)$, draw an arc.
4. Both the arcs intersects at point $A$.

$\vartriangle ABC$ is the required triangle.
