Solution
Steps for construction:
Step 1: Draw △PQR using the given measurements PQ=5cm,PR=6cm and ∠P=60∘.
Step 2: Construct the perpendicular bisectors of any two sides PQ and QR to find the mid-points of M and N respectively.
Step 3: Draw the median PN and MR and let them meet at G.
The point G is the centroid of the given △PQR.
