Construct a quadrilateral XYZW in which XY = 5 cm, YZ = 6 cm, ZW = 7 cm, WX = 3 cm and XZ = 9 cm.

Steps of construction:


Step I: Draw XZ = 9 cm



Step II: With X as the center and radius 5 cm, draw an arc above XZ.


Step III: With Z as the center and radius 6 cm, draw an arc to intersect the arc drawn in Step II at Y above XZ.



Step IV: With Z as the center and radius 7 cm, draw an arc below XZ.


Step V: With X as the center and radius 3 cm, draw an arc to intersect the arc drawn in Step IV at W below XZ.



Step VI: Join XY, YZ, ZW, and XW.WXYZ is the required quadrilateral.
