Solution
Given, in ΔABC,BC=5cm,∠B=60∘ and AC + AB = 7.5cm. to
Steps to construct the triangle ABC (i) Draw the base BC = 5cm. (ii) At the point B make an ∠XBC=60∘ (iii) Cut a line segment BD equal to AB + AC= 7.5cm on the ray BE. (iv) Join DC. (v) Make an ∠DCY=∠BDC (vi) Let CY intersect BE at A. Then, ΔABCis the required triangle.
