Construct △ LMN in which base MN = 7 cm, ∠ LMN = 75∘ and LM + LN = 9 cm.
Steps of construction:
Step 1. Draw MN = 5 cm
Step 2. Construct ∠M=75∘ and produce it to Y
Step 3. Cut off line segment MO = 9 cm on MY
Step 4. Join NO.
Step 5. Draw a perpendicular bisector of NO such that it intersects MY at L
Step 6. Join LN.
Step 7. LMN is the required triangle.
