Steps of construction:

Step I: Draw AC = 7.2 cm.

Step II: With A as the centre and radius 4cm, draw arcs on both sides of the line segment AC.

Step III: With C as the centre and radius 4.9 cm, draw arcs on both sides of AC intersecting the previous arcs of step II at B and D.

Step IV: Join BA, DA, BC and CD.

Thus, ABCD is the required kite.
