Solution

Step 1 : Draw a straight line BC with length 7 cm. Mark the left end as B and right end as C.
step 2 : construct a ray BM from point B with an angle 75 with respect to line BC.
Step 3: Mark an arc of length AB+AC=13 cm on BM from centre B that arc intersect BM at the point D.
Step 4: Join CD
Step 5: Now, draw a perpendicular bisector of CD that intersect BD at the point A.
Step 6: Join AC.

Therefore, ABC required triangle.
