Solution
Steps of construction : (i) Draw a line AB of length 5cm (ii) Taking B as centre, draw an angle B=60o using compass. (iii) With the help of compass, draw an arc BC=6.4cm from point B as centre (iv) Join the points A and C such that it forms a △ABC (v) Now, from A and B cut the bisector of ∠A and ∠B which, intersect each other at point D (vi) Taking D as centre, draw an incircle with the help of compass which touches all the three sides of △ABC
